Union Academy season concludes, teams prep for playoffs

This season proved to be an extremely successful one for all of the Philadelphia Union Academy teams. The U18’s, led by Head Coach Jeff Cook, finished their regular season with a 3-1 victory over D.C. United Academy and a 19-5 record. This win not only clinched a top seed at the U.S. Soccer Development Academy playoffs, but also the No. 1 position in the Atlantic Division. Many of the U18’s were also able to make names for themselves on the national and international stage, such as striker Tiger Graham, who put a stamp on his time with the Union Academy by finishing as the eighth leading goal scorer in the nation.
