Dynamite Bring on Ferguson, Monroe & Puente More...

The mood is set; the final pieces are in place, and the Dynamite look to make a triumphant return to indoor soccer circuit of the Premier Arena Soccer League, "One Touch at a Time."  Not when the first whistle blows; not then, but now... Dynamite, ignite:

After a successful season with the Springfield Demize (currently on hiatus from the PASL-Pro) last season, Justin Ferguson found himself back west and eager to help rebuild the Dynamite. Justin's other accolades include Trials with FC New York & Richmond Kickers (USL-Pro), 2009 PDL All Conference Honorable Mention with the Springfield Demize (USL-PDL).

Roby Monroe, makes his Dynamite return to the Highlands Ranch, CO based squad. But before his origins with Denver, he played for the Colorado Lightning in the PASL-Pro's inaugural season and was rostered on the original San Diego Sockers, who played in the previous incarnation of the Major Indoor Soccer League. He also played on several United Soccer League; Premier Development League (USL-PDL) teams such as the Colorado Comets, San Diego Gauchos, El Paso Patriots, and Nashville Metros. He also spent a stint in Cincinnati with the Riverhawks who played in the USL's A-League, now known as USL-Pro.

A diamond in the rough, Poncho Puente, came out of nowhere working his way up from the Denver's reserve squad in Dynamite fashion, notching 6 goals and 9 points in his first PASL-Pro match;  2nd only to the San Diego Sockers: Kraig Chiles and fellow teammate Jay Hamilton (7 goals, 11 points) in the Professional Arena Soccer League's history.

Other notable players from the PASL-Premier joining the Dynamite family are defenders Danny Bills & Tyler Conley and midfielders Taylor Kendal & Andrew Kummer (Colorado Predators/Denver Dragons), plus Defender Dan Millard & forward Trevor Wheeler (Denver Boom) with goalkeeper Jordan Howes (Golden Strikers).

The Dynamite kick off their 2011-12 campaign on the road with back-to-back games this weekend in Edwards, where they face Freedom FC on Saturday at 7PM; followed by a trip up I-25 to Ft. Collins to go toe-to-toe with the Fury Sunday at 6PM.
