Duke Suffers Stress Fracture - Sporting Loan Update

Christian Duke is set to miss six weeks of action for the OKC Energy after he suffered a stress fracture.  Duke had been a consistent starter for OKC this season and will be a blow for the Energy. Replacing him in the lineup appears like it'll fall mainly to KC's other midfielder loaned to OKC, Mikey Lopez.

In action on the field, the Energy had just one game this past week, a home game against the Rochester Rhinos. Probably the biggest thing about the game is that it fell during the USA's game against Portugal. Certainly not the best time to get fans out. Jon Kempin and the Energy though pitched their second straight shutout in the 0-0 draw with the Rhinos. Lopez also started and played the full game in the draw.

Oklahoma City is back at home again this weekend when they'll host the Sacramento Republic again.
