Academy Alumni NCAA 2020 Fall Season Recap: Seniors

We are about to witness history for Atlanta United’s Academy. For the first time, a class of alumni will conclude their senior season and contemplate their professional futures, domestic and abroad. The academy class of 2017 is a comparatively small one, with each player spending only the tail end of their academy careers with Atlanta United. Each player was born in 1998 like Atlanta United Homegrown players Patrick Okonkwo and Lagos Kunga, and enter a very different professional landscape than when they entered college almost four years ago. All of these players left for college prior to Atlanta United 2’s inaugural season.
