Colorado Springs, CO - The Colorado Springs Switchbacks add three points after a win in El Paso, 1-0.
In the first half, the Switchbacks recorded seven shots and maintained a passing accuracy of 80.9%. Possession shifted between the two sides until the 32nd minute, when #22 Marco Micaletto delivered a pass from just outside the 18-yard box to #11 Quenzi Huerman. Huerman from outside the 18, sent the ball into the top right corner of the net to give the Switchbacks the lone goal of the game.
