Rogers has recorded four goals this season, including two game-winning scores, legitimizing his role as an up-and-coming offensive threat. “Brian Rogers is a young player who has stepped in and been the guy beside Andre [Akpan] to contribute to our offense,” Clark said. “He does not get all the press, but he is a huge force on the field.” Another key contributor...
