Opening night for Springfield’s Professional Development League (PDL) team will be Mother’s Day weekend, and the start of the girls District playoffs. Saturday May 10th they will host the Colorado Rapid’s U23, with Lance Parker (MSU) in goal for the Rapids very likely.
The KC Brass visit twice, the first time May 22nd, just two days after the Class 3 Sectional that is traditionally held at Lake Country Soccer as well. They return two weeks later on June 6th, also the start of the Toyota Cup, being hosted by Lake Country this year. The Rapids U23’s will visit on Saturday June 7th.That should guarantee large crowds!
The final home games in early July feature Heartland Conference rivals St Louis and Des Moines, which will probably feature Drury forward Marco Cherisma. The games are bracketed by a pair of long distance road trips (to Colorado and Ontario). It’s a fairly balanced schedule that offers the St Louis Lions and Des Moines Menace as the final home games.

It looks like I might be headed up to Des Moines as well Ole; although actually, I have surgery on a broken 5th metatarsal tomorrow that will keep me out for 8 weeks. The Menace contacted me over Christmas break and it appears that things are going to work out so that I will be playing for them over the summer. I hear Omar might be playing up there as well.
