Eastern Pennsylvania Youth Soccer Celebrates Challenge Cup Champions!
This past weekend, the WSFS Bank Sportsplex in Chester witnessed incredible competition as the Eastern Pennsylvania Challenge Cup culminated in its exciting finals! We saw familiar faces reclaim glory and new teams etch their names in the history books. Let's take a look at some of the highlights and the final scores:
First-Time Challenge Cup Champions!
A huge congratulations to the following teams who clinched their first-ever Challenge Cup victory:
- Allentown Youth SC U19B: This win was a momentous occasion for the club, and we're thrilled to see their dedication pay off!
- AC Inspire U15G: These young champions displayed phenomenal teamwork and skill to secure the win.
- Carlisle Area Youth Soccer U17G: Congratulations on a well-fought competition and a well-deserved win!
- Bensalem Soccer Academy U12B: Dominating the competition, these rising stars were the ones to watch!
Additional Challenge Cup Champions
We also extend our applause to the following teams who emerged victorious in their respective age groups:
- Whitpain U16 Boys
- Riverfront United FC U14 Girls
NCS State Cup Champions Take Center Stage!
The celebration extended beyond the Challenge Cup, with the National Champion Soccer (NCS) State Cup champions receiving recognition as well. Penn FC U19 Girls are back-to-back State Cup champions. These young women continue to showcase their dominance on the field. FC Revolution U18 Reds secured a three-peat NCS championship. With multiple Division One players on their roster, UMass Commit Annie McCaffrey and Coach Eric Franks led the way for this USYS standout team to represent Eastern Pennsylvania once again in Regionals
Coaching Excellence
A special shoutout to Hex FC U19 Boys Head Coach Mike Gorni. Coach Gorni has already secured two McGuire Cup wins in the past decade, and with this talented U19 team, he has a strong chance of achieving a remarkable third title. This would solidify his position as the winningest coach in EPYSA State Cup history!
Inspiration from a USWNT Legend!
The event was further graced by the presence of former US Women's National Team player and current US Soccer Board member, Lori Lindsey. Ms. Lindsey, a 2011 Women's World Cup participant and current broadcaster for MLS on Apple TV and the NWSL on CBS Sports, took the time to greet the players and personally present awards to champions and finalists. Her presence served as a powerful inspiration for all the young athletes.
Congratulations to all the champions, finalists, and participants of the Challenge Cup and NCS State Cup! Your dedication, hard work, and passion for the beautiful game are what make these events truly special.
