Colorado Springs, CO (September 9th, 2025) – The Colorado Springs Switchbacks FC and the USL Championship officially announced today that Tyler Clegg has been named to the Team of the Week, and Stevie Echevarria to the Team of the Week bench for week 27 of the 2025 season, presented by Konami eFootball.
Clegg was a key player last Saturday when the Switchbacks battled Monterey Bay FC at Weidner Field. Not only did he score a goal, but he also held a passing accuracy of 76.4% and made seven clearances.
The breakthrough moment in the match arrived in the 56′ when Clegg made a bold run from the halfway line. Spotting an opening nearly 35 yards out, Clegg unleashed a thunderous strike that flew past Monterey Bay goalkeeper #1 Nico Campuzano, leaving him with no chance to react.
Echevarria showed off his impressive skills throughout the full 90 minutes. He successfully made three clearances, created a chance, and held a passing accuracy of 87.2%.
