Several Sporting Kansas City Academy players competed beyond their years on Saturday as the U-18s and U-16s defeated Solar Chelsea SC to kick off the spring half of the 2016-17 U.S. Soccer Development Academy season.
Returning to the field for their first Development Academy matches since November, the U-18s earned a 4-2 victory before the U-16s won 3-1 to round out the doubleheader at the University of Tulsa.
Six Sporting KC Academy players trained with the Swope Park Rangers last week—Ezra Armstrong, Chase Bromstedt, Leroy Enzugusi, Maxi Rugova, Wan Kuzain Wan Kamal and Patrick Wilkinson.
