COLUMBUS - Columbus Crew SC announced today that the Club is continuing to accept nominations for its "Hometown Heroes" program, presented by Land-Grant Brewing Company, through the Crew's Audi 2020 MLS Cup Playoffs run.

"Columbus Crew SC has the privilege of recognizing and honoring military members of our community through the "Hometown Heroes" program," said Crew SC Executive Vice President and Chief Business Officer Steve Lyons. "With this program now in its fifth year and as the Club begins its run in the playoffs, it was important for us to continue to recognize these local heroes. In honoring members of the community that have bravely served, it is special to us that we are able to do so alongside Land-Grant Brewing Company, who has continued to make these efforts possible and have committed to making the recognition a special moment for those who truly deserve the praise."
