Surprise, Surprise, Surprise

The Riverhounds just kept dropping one surprise after another this week.  First it was the announcement that Robbie Mertz (?!?) rejoined the team from Atlanta, then it was going down 1-0 to Hartford who had an XG of 0.03 all game (that’s not a typo), only to battle back with a top corner rip from Shane Wiedt?!?  Yea, it was a crazy week for sure.  We discuss it all, including:

  • What having Mertz back in Pittsburgh means for the team,
  • The USL’s midyear meetings and lack of major news
  • The introduction of Kizza to the lineup

And much more!  We add a surprise or two of our own in the mix, you’ll have to listen/watch to catch them.
