TACOMA STARS OPEN SEASON SATURDAY VS TURLOCK
TACOMA, WA. – The Tacoma Stars will kick off the 2018-19 Major Arena Soccer League season this Saturday December 1 against their Pacific Division opponent Turlock Express. Start time is scheduled for 7:05 pm at the accesso ShoWare Center in Kent.
While the Stars open their season Saturday, Turlock will come into the match having already played one game. This will be their second road game of the year as well after opening Friday November 30 in Ontario against the Fury.
The Stars will open with some new faces on the roster. The most notable acquisitions during the offseason are Matt Clare from San Diego, Milan Ivanovic from Kansas City, and the signing of former Seattle Sounders FC veteran James Riley. In addition, Tacoma welcomes back Mike Ramos and local player Adam West will add to Tacoma’s solid defense as well.
As the Stars welcome many new players, the Turlock Express come into the season relatively the same as last season except for bringing Ernesto Luna over from El Paso. Luna was a Coyotes regular having appeared in 21 games.
Both teams return their leading scorers from the 2017-18 campaign. For Tacoma, that was Nick Perera with 36 points (24G-12A) and Turlock had Ivan Campos set the pace with 39 points (24G-15A).
