[USL PRO REWIND: Week 17] Jamie Watson scored a goal in each half to propel first-place Orlando City to a 2-1 win overCharleston Battery in front of 8,729 fans — a club mid-week record crowd — at the Florida Citrus Bowl. The game marked the debut of 2011 MLS Rookie of the Year C.J.Sapong, who joined Orlando on loan from Sporting Kansas City.
