Sophomore Brandon Carballo is the other part of our center back duo. He has also been a very important part of the defense with this also being his first season with the team. Junior Mathew Mattingly has been the definition of clutch for us between the sticks this past week. Without his efforts, we would not have our back-to-back shutouts!
