Two NPSL Buffalo alums to MLS?

by Nick on February 19, 2010

We’re the new kids in town, but National Premier Soccer League entities in Buffalo have had some darn good players these past few seasons that we’ve enjoyed watching, and in some cases, working alongside.

After news earlier this month that former University at Buffalo and BCFC goalkeeper Bobby Shuttleworth re-upped with the New England Revolution, a former Buffalo flanker is making his way to the Colorado Rapids.
