After winning an Academy trophy, the Sounders Academy star is ready to build off that success in 2020.

The core of a sports team is like the downtown of your favorite city. It is the heart beat and pulse of the organization. 

President of Soccer Garth Lagerwey says Tacoma key part of youth movement.

Tacoma Defiance helped build Justin Dhillon, Danny Leyva, and Alfonso Ocampo-Chavez into players on an MLS Cup roster.

Players like to play; the youngest Defiance players still are even after the season ends.

The way the 2019 Tacoma Defiance season ended is a sign of things to come.

Opponents have only scored 3 goals in their last 4 games, but that success comes from different places on the pitch.

A ship’s captain communicates to the crew through his trusted officers. Kirk had Spock, Bones, Uhuru and others. A captain leans on his first mate, boatswain, and quartermaster. Tacoma Defiance coach Chris Little has his own leadership committee.
