From Union II to College Cup, Jackson Gilman looking to end busy 2022 with a trophy

Jackson Gilman has had a whirlwind of a 2022, spending the early part of the year playing in MLS Next Pro with Philadelphia Union II before graduating from high school and transitioning to college soccer at Pitt.

Tonight, the college rookie from Schwenksville, Pa. has a chance to extend his 2022 for one more game in a rematch against Indiana of a College Cup semifinal he watched from home two years ago.

When the match-up was finalized with wins by Pitt over Portland and Indiana over UNC Greensboro, it guaranteed there would be a YSC Academy grad playing for a national title.
