Coaches Comments

“Kupono has great vision of the field and is very smooth on the ball. He has great energy and is a good all-around player.”

Professional Career

Low enters his third season with the RailHawks. In 2007, he appeared in all 28 USL-1 matches and logged a team-best 2,517 minutes. He scored the franchise’s first goal in the eighth minute of the season opener against the Minnesota Thunder. He finished the year with six goals and four assists for a team-leading 16 points. He was named the team’s Most Valuable Player and All-League (second team). In 2008, Low led all field players minutes played (2,517) and was one of only three players with 29 or more appearances. He finished the season with one goal and five assists.

International Career

Low earned three caps in the winter of 2008 for Puerto Rico before the Federación Puertorriqueña de Fútbol modified its eligibility requirement. All U.S. citizens used to be eligible for Puerto Rico national teams, but now the player pool is restricted to players who have lived on the island for at least two years. As a result, Low was no longer eligible. He made his debut in a friendly against Bermuda and he scored his only international goal against Trinidad and Tobago on Jan. 26, 2008 in Bayamon, Puerto Rico.
