50+ College Coaches watch the matches

17 boys headed to Orlando, Florida over the holiday break to participate in the Dinsey College Showcase event.  Teams from all over the country as well as US Soccer Academies and National League teams arrived for the 4 day event.  With the amount of talent in one place, there were a lot of games for college coaches to watch and many came to watch Campton United.

     The boys beat FC Florida Parkland (#42 Natl) in game 1.  A great battle back and forth with the boys coming from back from 0-1 to win 2-1.  A lot of skill displayed by both teams.

     Game 2 was vs Penn Fusion SA '95 Boys (#12 Natl) and turned out to be a very entertaining game to watch.  Both teams with great opportunities and players on both sides shining for the coaches.  Both teams equally deserved the win and it ended appropriately 1-1.

      The boys beat Everest SC (OH-N) in game 3 to win their bracket and move onto the final vs Manhattan PSG (#31 Natl).  The boys played well and had the best chances on the day, but the ball wouldnt slip into the net.  The match ended 0-0, with the boys falling in PKs.

      This was a great week for the boys.  The boys prepared for this event by playing in the Shattuck St. Mary's Showcase in Minnesota and going 3-0 earlier in December.  Congratulations boys.
