Colorado Springs Switchbacks FC’s Devala Gorrick

Bringing a wealth of European training and experience, Devala Gorrick turned in an incredible 2016, his second year with Colorado Springs. The 29-year-old West Virginia native was an all-star in the Thai Premier League, and also spent Academy time in the Bundesliga as a teenager.

Gorrick ended the season with a USL high 13 clean sheets. He made 81 saves, and finished second in goals against average, with 0.72. He is the perfect backstop for a Switchbacks side that is not afraid to play physical soccer. Outside of soccer, he is an award-winning filmmaker and producer, and also an aspiring actor.

Vancouver Whitecaps FC 2’s Kyle Greig

Representing the only playoff team from north of the border, Vancouver Whitecaps FC 2’s Kyle Greig is a proven goal scorer in the USL. He started his career in the league with Wilmington, before scoring 16 goals over two seasons with OKC Energy FC.

This season, the collected, crafty Wisconsin native has hit another gear offensively, scoring 11 goals and tallying three assists in his first season with Whitecaps FC 2. He captained the club to the top of the Western Conference table for a good portion of the year, and will look to have them finish the season on top as well.

September 30th at 9pm EDT from Switchbacks Stadium. Watch it live HERE.
