Lumberton, New Jersey native and Reading United alum Ryan Finley is wasting no time making an impact with Chivas USA.

Recently acquired from the Dayton Dutch Lions, Finley has been doing big things for the club. He has played limited minutes in just two games with the first team, but his play with the reserves has displayed that he deserves to play more. Over the weekend, Finley netted a hat trick over USL squad Arizona United SC. Despite his outstanding individual play, Finley remained humble. “Obviously it feels really good,” Finley told CDChivasUSA.com. “The guys have been really welcoming which helps a ton, kind of showing me the ropes of the team and how things operate. It’s been a long trip traveling, a couple of different time zones in a couple different weeks, so it’s nice to get 90 minutes and kind of regain some match fitness.”

Finley will look to add some more first team minutes in the coming weeks as Chivas has a hectic schedule, including a game against Philadelphia Union on Saturday (10:30 pm, CSN, MLS Live,MLS Direct Kick).
