Union Academy squads kick off DA Winter Cup with victories

The first-ever US Development Academy Winter Cup is underway in Florida and Philadelphia Union's U17 and U19 squads are once again showing the academy's quality.

Heading into the weekend, Kevin Coleman's U19 team was yet to give up a goal and put six past its two opponents.

Bethlehem Steel regular Axel Picazo opened the scoring against Miami Rush Kendall SC before Union signee Jack de Vries and Steel's youngest-ever starter Patrick Bohui finished things off in the second half.

Bohui got on the board again against Shattuck-St. Mary's on Thursday, scoring one minute after former Shattuck player Danny Flores opened his Winter Cup account.
