A season marked with career milestones, exciting rivalries, and resilience – 2024 so far has been nothing short of exciting. Before the club turns its attention to kicking off its last 10 games in the regular season by facing second-in-the-East Charleston Battery, have a look at the Quails’ season so far, by the numbers:
24 Weeks at the Top of the Table
The Indomitable Club has displayed an unwavering drive for excellence as they managed to maintain a top position in the Western Conference for 24 consecutive weeks – with the only exception being two weeks spent in the third position.
Dominance on the Road
Best away record in the league (6-1-4)
Most goals on the road in western conference (20)
Least amount of goals conceded on the road in the league (10)
22 TOTW Selections
The week-one selection of Republic FC forward Trevor Amann to Player of the Week began a season-long pattern of league-recognition for the Quails. As of now, Sacramento has claimed a total of 22 selections – with multiple Team of the Week selections representing both Republic FC’s offensive unit and defensive core.
Netting Across the Roster
The Indomitable Club’s mid-season 33 goals is a result of talent from all over the pitch. With one-third of goals scored by Republic FC substitutions, the backline with three – doing more than just defending, and a team-high nine goals belonging to striker Trevor Amann.
Republic FC also marks its 10 games left with a +13 goal differential – the best in the West. This not only reflects the squad’s ability to score goals, but how well they prevent them.
Defensive Consistency
- Only 20 goals conceded – a league best.
- Danny Vitiello leads the league’s goalkeeping corps with 11 clean sheets, eight nominations and six wins for Save of the Week, and another fan vote winner for Midseason Goalkeeper & Player of the Year
- In the 24 matches played so far this season, Republic FC has never lost by a multi-goal deficit.
