RSL joins Austin FC, FC Dallas and Houston Dynamo FC in wearing patches to commemorate the 19 students and two teachers killed at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, TX on the morning of Tuesday, May 24.
The Houston Dash of the National Women’s Soccer League will also feature the patch on their uniforms.
