Colorado Springs Switchbacks FC News Release


Colorado Springs, CO - The Colorado Springs Switchbacks FC and the USL Championship officially announced today that Juan Tejada has been named to the Team of the Week for week 28 of the 2025 season, presented by Konami eFootball.

Tejada shined last Saturday as the Switchbacks took on the Tampa Bay Rowdies on the road. He netted his first brace in a Switchbacks jersey, while also posting an 85.2% passing accuracy and winning possession four times.

In the 17 ‚¬Â², #5 Matt Mahoney sent in a pinpoint cross that Tejada met with perfect timing. He rose above the defense and powered a header into the left side of the net.

Then in the 32 ‚¬Â², #14 Duke Lacroix burned past a defender and found Tejada in space. With quick control, Tejada spun and drilled the ball past the keeper for his second of the night.
