…Budler, 23, was a four-year starter for the Zips, recording 36 clean sheets and allowing only 65 goals across 76 starts on his way to being a two-time Big East Goalkeeper of the Year and a Third Team All-American as a junior in 2024. With Budler in goal, the Zips won the 2022 Mid-American Conference regular season title and reached the NCAA Tournament three times, advancing all the way to the Elite Eight last fall.

 

“Mitch is a first-year pro out of the University of Akron with tremendous upside, and we believe he’ll make significant strides this year working under goalkeeper coach Jon Busch,” Sporting Director Dan Visser said. …

Richie Laryea had another assist last night for Toronto in 2-1 win over Columbus 

 

great paragraph about Richie.

The Richie Laryea Factor - At this point, it’s not even a debate: Richie Laryea is the heartbeat of this roster. Whether he’s marauding down the wing or tucking inside to create overloads, his work rate and tenacity set the tone for the entire squad. His assist on the Cifuentes goal was a perfect example of his ability to turn a standard transition into a goal-scoring opportunity. When the game gets chaotic, Laryea is the one player who consistently demands the ball and forces the opposition into mistakes, making him arguably the most indispensable piece of Fraser’s lineup.

… Austin FC selected Dobrijevic in the second round of the MLS SuperDraft 2026 with the 47th overall pick. The Uniontown, Ohio native appeared in 76 matches for the University of Akron during his collegiate career. He contributed 15 goals across four (4) seasons with Akron, including eight (8) goals and 12 assists in 21 matches as a senior in 2025, helping the Zips reach the quarterfinals of the NCAA Division I Men’s Soccer Tournament. He was named the Big East Offensive Player of the Year, to the All-Big East First Team and Big East All-Tournament Team, the United Soccer Coaches All-East Region Team, and a United Soccer Coaches First-Team Scholar All-America honoree. …

 

I watched a little bit of the Austin FC II match last night to check out Stefan. After coming on as as sub in the first match of the season, he's now started the last three matches and has one assist so far. I hope to see him get some first team minutes by the end of the season!
