El Paso Locomotive had a historic night scoring 6 goals against a Las Vegas Lights team that had 0 fight left in them with a new manager due in. Locomotive could only beat what was in front of them but it's fair to say they did not have a great opponent to match up against. A big night for Eric Calvillo with his brace and Gabi Torres continued to impress. Then there's quick discussion of Miami FC and their poor form ahead of the matchup at the Estadio de Pitbull on Saturday evening.

The crew discuss El Paso Locomotive's 2-1 home loss to San Antonio FC in the Copa Tejas. The early goal from Juan Agudelo was cancelled out by a tap in from Amando Moreno but Alex Crognale had the last laugh with a goal in the 82nd minute. The team, mentality and some early mistakes are discussed as the group discuss just what this side needs to get back to consistent winning ways.

El Paso Locomotive suffered its first loss of the season at Southwest University Park in the Jagermeister Cup against Colorado Springs Switchbacks. The 1-0 loss came courtesy of a Quenzi Huerman strike and the conversation centers around Locomotive playing a very changed lineup, how to build confidence in a fringe player, and the frustrating nature of the goal.

Then the conversation shifts to the USL Championship match in Oakland against the Roots. Oakland has struggled for form but recently hired Benny Feilhaber, can the Locos make sure they don't get hit by the new manager bounce for the opposition?

Then they preview Wednesday's match against Ventura County in the US Open Cup and the return of Logan Ketterer to the SWUP on Saturday when Lexington SC comes to town.

El Paso Locomotive FC had another terrible trip up north to Albuquerque in the Derby del Camino Real. New Mexico United claimed a late win due in large part to Locomotive having a quite conservative approach that seemed to be overly deferential to United. Plus they chat the US Open Cup win over Harpos FC and the USL's recent announcement about implementing Promotion and Relegation with the launch of their first division men's league in 2028.

El Paso Locomotive have seen their fair share of crazy results at Southwest University Park but none from the comfort of a 4-1 lead and none that actually overwrote an overhead kick. Phil and Christian break down the game and all of the madness behind it. Then they look ahead to the USOC and Locomotive's search for a first win against Harpos FC of Boulder, CO and finally a look to the Derby del Camino Real in Albuquerque at the weekend. 

El Paso Locomotive earned a 2-2 draw by virtue of goals from Amando Moreno and Andy Cabrera, coming back twice to leave opening night of the USL Championship season with a point against Colorado Springs Switchbacks.
