Wilson Harris named to USL Championship Team of the Week bench

Sporting Kansas City II striker Wilson Harris can't stop scoring.


The 20-year-old Sporting KC Academy product continued his red-hot run of form on Friday, striking twice in a 3-2 road loss to Saint Louis FC. The impressive attacking performance landed Harris a spot on the USL Championship Team of the Week bench, marking the second time he has received the honor in three weeks.


Harris has bagged five goals in his last three USL Championship appearances and has a team-best seven goals on the season. In a 2-1 win over FC Tulsa on Aug. 29, he became the youngest player in USL Championship history to hit 20 career goals.


Sporting Kansas City II (4-6-1, 13 points) will continue their travels on Wednesday, visiting Indy Eleven (6-4-1, 19 points) in a pivotal Group E clash on ESPN Plus.
