Yeah, Jake Besagno. He's Nik's older brother, plays for Seattle. That is exactly what I said when I saw the Preseason roster.

great info, not pele...

I also noticed the name "Besagno", but for a different reason...Nik as a central defender! Wonder how that worked out.

And Kreamy continues to be great in pre-seasons, apparently.

Also, the big question is how Ballouchy looked. Can't wait to hear more so that I can get my hopes up about the season.

Word has it that he was left out of Tuesday's match so that he can be rested to play against the Metros.
