Homegrown midfielder Ricardo Perez has been loaned to USL side Colorado Springs Switchbacks ahead of their home game with Seattle Sounders FC II this evening.


Perez signed a Homegrown contract with the Rapids on January 6, having spent his college career at Creighton.


He was a part of the MLS game day 18 for the trip to the New York Red Bulls on March 11, but is yet to make his MLS debut.


The 21-year-old, born in Mexico but raised in Fort Collins, first joined the Rapids Academy at the U-14 level in 2008. During his time at Creighton, he netted 15 goals and tallied nine assists in 88 games - the third-most matches played in program history.
