Switchbacks FC, led by head coach Steve Trittschuh, have started the season 4-4-0 in their inaugural USL campaign. They are led by Luke Vercollone with five goals and three assists on the season. Colorado Springs is coming off a dominant 5-0 win over Arizona United SC on May 23 at Sand Creek Stadium
Galaxy II are led by forward Ariel Lassiter, who has recorded a team-high four goals on the season, and midfielder Raul Mendiola with a USL-leading seven assists during the regular season campaign. Los Dos will look to bounce back from a 2-1 loss to the Ventura County Fusion last week in the second round of the 2015 Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup, in which a last-second goal from the visitors knocked Galaxy II out of the tournament.
