While the homegrown striker hasn’t seen the field much, Justin Rennicks works harder than a lot of other players on the team. Justin has scored two goals in the 700 minutes across 10 starts and five subs.

If you take a moment to watch Rennicks’ movement, he’s always shifting his running lane to receive the ball. If he isn’t in a position to score, he still makes a run, that can help pull defenders to allow other players. His consistent movement forces defenders to have to keep guessing about the run he will make.

Also, while off the ball, Justin is sure to provide defensive pressure in the attacking third. His pressures during his time on the field rival the outside backs who have played in almost all games this year. With the major injuries to attackers this year, Justin’s effort has been pivotal to keeping the team progressing offensively.
