The Pateadores Academy BU18 roared in to the 2011 Development Academy Finals with a string of impressive victories in the playoffs at Pizza Hut Park in Dallas.
With technical flair and tactical acumen, the Academy BU18 team has recently dominated its Major League Soccer (MLS) youth soccer counterparts. It was no different in Dallas. The highlight of the weekend was a clinical 3-0 dismantling of DC United BU18.
Quite simply, the Academy BU18 had too much game for the other teams in Group 1. They took all nine points in convincing fashion with a 3-1 victory over Empire United and a 2-1 win against North Carolina Fusion.
The Pats Academy BU18 travels to Milwaukee for Finals Week. There, the eight group winners will split into two groups. The group winners face off in the Championship Match on July 15, televised live on ESPNU at 9:00am (PT).
