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.
