The Battery take on Antigua tonight at Blackbaud, kickoff at 7:30pm.

The Battery will be looking to get back to winning ways after dropping three points in Orlando. The Guys will have felt hard pressed by the road result and I look for them to come out with a bang tonight.

Antigua might have some road weary players as they majority of their team make up the Antigua National team that saw them defeated by the US 3-1 and drawing with Jamaica 0-0.

The Antigua Barracuda are also qualifying for the CONCACAF Champions league (and one game away from getting the invite)

Looks like Dykstra is still in town for this one and everyone should be healthy although Navion Byod came off in Orlando with what looked like some crapping. Hope it wasn't anything else as he was terrorizing the left side all night.

Nicki Paterson was featured in an article in today's Post and Courier.

If you didn't see his strike against Orlando (which coincidentally keeps him as the leagues top goal scorer) go back and watch the replay of the match on www.uslnation.com

Well be having a light tailgate tonight mostly some Tortilla Soup and beer but well be near the East Stand Entrance around 5:30 if anyone cares to join us!

Up the Battery!
