IMG_0367.jpgIn preparation for its match this Wednesday against Seattle Sounders FC, Barcelona was on campus Monday morning for a practice session at Husky Soccer Field.

Barcelona, the reigning European champion and also one of the greatest clubs in the world historically, arrived around 9:30 a.m. on Monday, with a Spanish press corps of around 30 in tow.
