Ahead of Week 23, find News & Notes, the Discipline Report and current player, team and league records below.
Sneddon salvaging the Kickers' season?
The Richmond Kickers' 18-year-old USL Academy goalkeeper has been balling out for the Roos to kick off his professional career. After making his professional debut in Round 8 of the 2024 USL Jägmermeister Cup - a 3-2 victory against Spokane - Sneddon has seemingly beaten out legendary League One goalkeeper Pablo Jara for the starting spot.
Sneddon is now a clean sheet away from setting a League One record with a fourth consecutive clean sheet in what would be only his fourth start in regular season play. Sneddon's stellar start has helped the Kickers jump back above the playoff line with only three matches remaining.
Only goalkeepers with three clean sheets in first three League One regular season starts:
