ROCHESTER, N.Y. -- The Rochester Rhinos will return to action on Saturday night when they host Antigua Barracuda FC at Sahlen’s Stadium. Kickoff for the match is slated for 7 p.m.
Antigua has gotten out of the gates quickly, posting a 6-2-0 record through its first eight games. Forward Peter Byers leads the club and is third in the league with four goals and nine points respectively. Fellow forward Stefan Smith ranks fourth in points with eight.
“Antigua has had a good start to their season” said Rhinos Head Coach Bob Lilley. “Right now they are atop the league with 18 points. They will provide a good challenge for us.”
The Rhinos are currently 2-3 in the National Division with all three losses coming by 1-0 results, including a setback to the Harrisburg City Islanders on Tuesday night. Rochester defeated the defending USL-2 champion Charleston Battery at Sahlen’s Stadium last weekend. In that match midfielder Tony Donatelli tallied his first goal as a Rhino while Neal Kitson recorded his first shutout of the season and eighth of his career.
