Across State Lines: Onalfo Heads to New England

This will be the fourth MLS club Onalfo has worked for following stints with KC, DC United, and the LA Galaxy.

Also this week, former Sporting Kansas City and Swope Park Rangers forward, Kris Tyrpak earned himself USL Championship player of the week for a hattrick in the Austin Bold’s 3-2 win over Tulsa.
