During Matchweek 24, Clay Holstad once again proved to be the central engine that keeps Rhode Island FC running, earning Man of the Match honors in the club's 1-1 come from behind draw against Oakland Roots. Holstad played the full 90 minutes, completing 85% of his passes and taking two shots from his central midfield position. Holstad's never say die attitude and his endless supply of energy are a huge part of RIFC's recent run of form.
