SEASIDE, Calif. (Tuesday, May 31, 2022) – Monterey Bay’s win over Colorado Springs Switchbacks FC in Week 12 featured a season-high four goals for the Union from four different goal scorers. Two of those goal scorers, midfielders Chase Boone and Adrian Rebollar, were named to this week’s USL Championship Team of the Week.
Boone’s top-11 performance, his second such honor of the season thus far, featured both an assist and a goal-of-the-week nominee from an impossible angle in the third minute of stoppage time to put the stamp on an impressive night for the Crisp and Kelp. Rebollar is also being recognized for his menacing performance in the midfield on the night, in which he won nine duels and drew four fouls. Defensively, Rebollar added four tackles and two interceptions, including one that resulted in the Watsonville native’s game-winning goal in the 73rd minute.
