Toronto FC II travels to Rochester this weekend to play their final game of the 2016 USL season. 
The Reds will take on the Rhinos at 5:05 PM.

The Young Reds will be looking to end their season on a high note after their 2-1 victory over 
Orlando City B two weekends ago. "We have nothing to lose...we need to leave it all out there,” 
said co-captain Skylar Thomas.

The Young Reds will try to play spoiler yet again this weekend. The Rhinos are looking to secure 
home field advantage for the USL playoffs. The Young Reds would love to deny their rivals that 
opportunity. The Rhinos are undefeated in their last eight matches.

Toronto FC II has played the Rhinos extremely well this year. The Reds defeated the Rhinos 2-1 
back in July. Lucca Uccello and Malik Johnson would both score for the Young Reds. The two teams 
would play to a 1-1 draw in their second meeting at the OSC. Skylar Thomas scored the equalizer 
for the Reds.

"This match is going to be intense,” said head coach Jason Bent, “we want to finish as far up the 
table as we can."
