Las Vegas Lights FC News Release
Las Vegas, NV - Las Vegas Lights FC today announced that midfielder Giovanni Aguilar successfully underwent right knee surgery on Thursday to repair his ACL and meniscus. The midfielder will now begin rest and recovery and will be out approximately six to eight months.
