HERRIMAN, Utah - Real Salt Lake defender Noah Powder has been named to Trinidad & Tobago's World Cup qualifying squad. T&T will face Guyana on Thursday, March 25 followed by a Sunday, March 28 match against Puerto Rico.

"Noah is an extremely talented player who has earned this opportunity to represent his country on a global stage," RSL General Manager Elliot Fall said. "We're excited to see him help Trinidad and Tobago in their push to qualify for the World Cup."

Powder, 21, played 30 regular season matches for the Monarchs in 2019, scoring two goals in 2,629 minutes. In the playoffs, he notched two assists and scored in the USL Championship Final to secure the club's first title. Powder has nine goals and seven assists in 90 USL matches, logging 7,050 minutes, including one goal and four assists in 10 appearances in 2020.

Powder signed for RSL in September 2020 ahead of the 2021 season.

"I'm extremely blessed and humbled to receive another call into camp with Trinidad and Tobago," Powder said. "It is always an honor to put on your national team's jersey. I can't wait to meet the group and help fight for my country in any way that I can."

Internationally, Powder received his first call-up to the T&T senior roster for its friendly match against the United States on January 31 in Orlando, Florida where he featured as a second-half substitute. Powder has also played 13 matches across the T&T U-17 and U-20 sides, notching two goals for each age group.

Powder joined the Monarchs prior to the 2019 season as a young veteran in the USL Championship. Success has followed since his professional career began in 2016. The New Jersey native played two seasons with New York Red Bulls II in 2016 and 2017 and helped NYRBII to a USL title as a rookie. He then joined Orange County SC in the USL Championship where he helped OCSC to the Western Conference Final in 2018.
