Former Temple soccer star, J.T Noone, played the entire 2nd half in a friendly vs. Chivas Guadalajara. The Union won the game 1-0 and Noone earned some much needed experience. This was only Noone's fourth appearance with the Union this season.
Although Noone didn't do anything to set himself apart from the rest, he did an extremely good job of finding space and creating passing options for his teammates. His ball skills were not up to par, however, that only comes with more experience. The more Noone plays the more he will be able to adapt to the speed at the pro level and will learn to pass the ball quicker.
Along with his ability to create and exploit open space he also showed his versatility. He was brought in as a right midfielder but with about 10 minutes left, he was moved back to right fullback. He played both positions well and worked hard.
We here at Cherry and White believe that Noone will become a great player once he gets time regularly. Noone has a lot of potential and versatility. If he works on passing quicker and continues to work hard the minutes will come for him in the future.
