Palace last played at Poly/Western on August 3rd of last year, when they defeated the Bermuda Hogges, 3-0. The Eagles close out their 2009 USL-2 campaign with road games against Harrisburg (August 7) and Pittsburgh (August 15). See my previous article on how these games could heavily affect Palace's playoff chances.
