A Record Setting Match

A good Sunday night in Foxboro!

Revvies 4, New York Red Bulls, 0











Before the match began, Revvies' defender Jay Heaps was presented with an encased game ball in recognition of his 300th MLS appearance. He is only the ninth player in the league's history to reach this mark. Just to make the night even more special, from defense Heaps went on to score the first goal of the match. After half time, Heaps was also recognized with assisting Steve Ralston with the second goal of the match. Very exciting!

Revvies' striker, Taylor Twellman, who has been out with injury for an extended period of time made only his second appearance this season coming on as a half time sub. Not long after Ralston's goal, Twellman scored making his 100th all time goal. He is the youngest player in MLS history to meet this mark and did so in the fewest number of games.

And not to be left out, the Revvies' clean score sheet gave Matt Reis his 50th career shutout, making him the 7th goalie in MLS history to reach that mark.

It was a great match; and oh, by the way, we beat our biggest rivals 4-0!!!
