ALL-TIME SERIES RESULTS

ABOUT TIMBERS 2

DEFENSIVE DOMINANCEOpposing teams are finding it difficult to score at Starfire. Since a 5-1 defeat at home, S2’s only home loss of the season, the Rave Green have recorded three straight home shutouts. The club recorded two tightly contested 1-0 victories over LA Galaxy II and Real Monarchs SLC, while putting four goals on the board against Arizona United SC. Portland Timbers 2, however, haven’t been shutout at Starfire this season, scoring one goal twice in two 2-1 losses. S2 has shut out T2 while in Portland, with two 2-0 victories at Merlo Field. S2 will be playing without centerback Damion Lowe, who is serving a one-game suspension due to yellow card accumulation after picking up a caution in S2’s road match against Colorado Springs Switchbacks FC on July 18 during a 1-1 draw. Sérgio Mota will also miss the match after picking up a red card in the same match.

Portland Timbers 2 are 3-6-0 on the road, and enter the match having split a home and away series with Whitecaps FC 2, most recently defeating Vancouver 4-2. T2 has dropped both previous matches, one in league play and one in the Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup, in Seattle by a final score of 2-1, with Blair Gavin assisting each goal the club has scored at Starfire. T2 is led by Head Coach Jay Vidovich, the former Wake Forest boss.

Ezra Hendrickson was announced as an assistant coach on January 20, 2009, after com-pleting a 14-year professional career, including 12 seasons in Major League Soccer. He is now the head coach of Sounders FC 2, the club’s USL team.

Together, they won the 2002 MLS Cup with the Los Angeles Galaxy and the 2008 MLS Cup in Columbus. Hendrickson was also with the cham-pion D.C. United team in 2004.

A native of the island of St. Vincent in the Caribbean, Hendrickson began his career in 1997 with the New York MetroStars, before joining the Galaxy later that season. He totaled six seasons in Los Angeles, where he won the 2000 CONCACAF Champions Cup, scoring two goals in a 3-2 victory, and the 2001 Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup, scoring one goal in a 2-1 victory. He was named Galaxy’s Most Valuable Player for the 2001 season.
