Duo combined for two goals and two assists in 7-1 win over T2

RENO, Nev. – Reno 1868 FC midfielder Tucker Bone and defender Sam Gleadle earned spots on the USL Championships Team of the Week, days after a 7-1 victory over Portland Timbers 2.

Bone notched a pair of goals in the first 11 minutes, the second-fastest brace in club history. The goals set the tone for the big win, and Bone would finish with four shots on goal.

Gleadle earned a pair of assists on the night, his first career two-assist game. The pair of assists make him just the eighth player in Reno history to tally multiple assists in a game.

The two honorees make it a sixth-straight week for Reno with a representative on the weekly list, and Gleadle becomes the fifth different player to make it on the team. Bone is on the team for the second time this season, and second time in the last three weeks. Despite the rush of Reno players on the team of the week, this is the first time two players have made it on the list in the same week

Gleadle and Bone are back in action on Saturday in a Donner Pass Derby game against Sacramento Republic FC. Kickoff from Papa Murphy’s Park is set for 7:30 p.m. PT, and can be seen on Nevada Sports Net or ESPN Radio 94.5 locally, or ESPN+ nationally.
