Philadelphia Union Academy goalkeeper named Delco High School Player of the Year

Philadelphia Union Academy goalkeeper Matthew Freese was named the All-Delco Boys Soccer Player of the Year by the Delaware County Daily Times for his play at Episcopal Academy this fall.

Freese joined the Union Academy over the summer, and despite being offered the starting job on the U18 team after C.J. dos Santos signed with Benfica in Portugal, decided to return for his senior season at Episcopal.

While playing high school soccer, Freese continued to train with the Academy, Bethlehem Steel FC, as well as having a chance to train with the first team in October.
