Five Academy products feature for SPR, all as teenagers
The Swope Park Rangers moved into first place in the USL's Western Conference on Wednesday with a 1-0 win over Colorado Springs Switchbacks FC.
And they did so with five Sporting KC Academy products on the field logging professional minutes as teenagers.
The youngest of the group, 15-year-old midfielder Gianluca Busio, contributed the game-winning assist just seven minutes into his pro debut.
Seventeen-year-old Jaylin Lindsey and 19-year-old Wan Kuzain Wan Kamal were also introduced in the starting lineup under the bright lights at Children's Mercy Park.
