Even after the loss at Las Vegas this weekend, Tacoma Defiance are a win away from taking over the 4th place spot in the Pacific Division. At this time the top 3 are well out of sight. Rising, Loyal, and Orange County are the class of the Pacific, with Orange County SC only losing once since their loss to Tacoma back on May 16.
At 17 points in 9 matches played, OCSC are the second-best team in the division. However, they are missing their top attacking threat six-goal scorer Ronaldo Damus is at the Gold Cup with Haiti. They also have a swath of injuries limiting their talent, but have still managed to win games.
Three reasons to watch Defiance v. Las Vegas Lights with us

With vengeance on their minds, Tacoma Defiance are in action at Cashman Field facing the Las Vegas Lights. Lights won the previous match this season 2-0 with Cal Jennings and Bryce Duke scoring. Neither player is available for Vegas tonight.
No team is more dependent on loandowns to get wins than Las Vegas - only two of their 12 goals and none of their assists come from non-MLS talents.
Defiance will be without most of their own loandowns as the Sounders play Sunday night and the roster is stretched thin at this time. That means that Wade Webber will have to count on his signed talent to perform in their quest for a first road win of 2021.
