What are the Goalie Wars?
The event puts two goalkeepers head-to-head, firing shots at one another while protecting their own net. Each matchup lasts 90 seconds, with every goal counting one point and one Bonus Ball available for double points.
The keeper with the highest score advances until one is crowned the Goalie Wars Champion. Mackey unfortunately lost his round to Pedro Cruz of the Houston Dynamo 2.
Mackay is in his first season with Huntsville City FC, and so far has a 72.3% save percentage, good for seventh-best in MLS NEXT Pro.
