Beyond The Box Score: High-flying Gianluca Busio saves Sporting for second straight week

Let's call it the way it is: Gianluca Busio is starting to make this "Beyond The Box Score" series his very own.

On the same day golfer Tiger Woods stole national headlines with a dramatic victory at The Masters, the 16-year-old Sporting Kansas City academy product reminded soccer fans across the country of his undeniable talent.

Suffice to say it's been a whirlwind two weeks for Busio, who on March 30 became the youngest MLS goal scorer in Children's Mercy Park history and on April 7 became the youngest MLS player to score in back-to-back regular season matches.
