Ownby Taking a Trip to Houston
Per the Dynamo’s site Ownby is heading back to Houston tonight to be available for their game on Wednesday. Fortunately for the Riverhounds he is expected to return after the Dynamo match which means he should still be available this weekend. Depending on how much he plays Wednesday night I imagine he will be a sub option instead of a starter. With Kerr back at full health and C’deBaca returning last weekend the Hounds midfield is once again fully stocked. While Evans does has options hopefully we’ll have one of

By @SAdyson HOUNDS NEWS: Injury Report: Angulo & Flunder -lower extremity; day to day. Ineligible: John -3 games — PghRiverhounds (@PghRiverhounds) April 18, 2014 With Angulo (and John) out, this opens up more minutes for JJ Johnson and Jhonny Arteaga at forward. Losing Flunder at RB is killer right now. We wouldn’t be surprised if Evans shifts to a 3-5-2 — a formation that has been successful for the team during the late stages of games so far this season. #UNLEASH
