Currently in fifth place in the Western Conference, Sounders FC can clinch a spot in the 2016 Audi MLS Cup Playoffs Wednesday evening with a win over the last-place Dynamo. Seattle and Houston have met twice already this season, with the Rave Green twice stealing a road draw at BBVA Compass Stadium thanks to late equalizers.

MEDIA NOTE: At halftime of Wednesday's match, Fewing and past and present Seattle University Men's soccer players are being honored on the Xbox Pitch, as Sounders FC pauses to recognize 50 years of the program's history. Fewing is now in his second stint as Head Coach of the Redhawks and led the school to its first-ever Division I Sweet 16 appearance last season. He was hired back to the school in 2012 after previously serving as Head Coach from 1988-2005, winning the 1997 NAIA National Championship and the 2004 NCAA Division II National Championship.
