Spokane, WA — After another exceptional showing in the midfield, Velocity FC’s Andre
Lewis earned a Team of the Round nod for round 3 of the Prinx Tires USL Cup. The selection marks
his second consecutive after making the team last week.
The veteran midfielder came up big for Spokane last weekend against AC Boise,
scoring a second-half goal to put his side up 2-0 over their regional rivals and effectively
secure the win for Velocity FC. Lewis also played well defensively, notching four tackles
and three interceptions.
On the season, Andre is second on the team in passes with 384 and is one of two
players with an 80% or better passing accuracy with 300+ passes, with Gagi
Margvelashvili being the other. He has also made his presence known defensively, with
Lewis in the top two on the team in interceptions (8) and tackles (18).
This is the third straight week in which a Velocity FC player has been named to a Team of the
Week/Round. Overall, 13 different players have made a Team of the Week and two
have made a Team of the Round for Spokane in 2026.
