Defender Scott Thomsen (#3) came to the rescue for Richmond Saturday night against Madison. Deep into stoppage time, the UVA product was in the right place at the right time to clear the ball off the line to preserve the clean sheet and first win of the season for the Kickers. Defender Ian Antley (#2) notched his first professional assist on Emailiano Terzaghi’s game winner over Madison, earning him a spot in the USL League One Team of the Week. Antley has played every minute of the first three matches for Richmond this season after signing his first pro deal in the off season. Midfielder Ryley Kraft (#98) has also played every minute this season, completing 77.8 percent of his passes in Saturday’s win. The U.S. youth international is in his first full season with Richmond after joining the club in the midst of the 2019 season.
