Vereinigung Erzgebirge win USL of Pennsylvania league title for first time since 2015

WHITEMARSH TWP. — Vereinigung Erzgebirge are United Soccer League of Pennsylvania men’s major champions for the first time since 2015 after a 2-0 win over Colonial SC on Sunday afternoon at Plymouth-Whitemarsh High School.

Christopher “Rat” Baker and Conor O’Donnell scored in the first half to lead VE to the win that clinched the club’s fourth league title. VE posted 14 wins on the season and the only blemish was a 1-1 draw with United German Hungarians in a mid-week game in April.

“This is really the hardest thing,” VE head coach Rob Oldfield said after the win.
