US Youth Soccer kicked off it's first National League event in conjunction with the NCAA Men's Final Four weekend in Birmingham, Alabama.

CESA 93 Boys Premier finished the weekend at the top of their bracket with 3 wins(including a win over Penn Fusion the #1 team in the nation) and 1 tie. They will resume play in February in Miama, Florida.

Fantastic. What a great group of young men. Well deserved. What a difference in coaching from last year to this. Nick is probably, no, is the best coach in all of SC. A matter of time before a college program picks him up. Wise move on CESA's part to bring him back

I believe Adam Turner gave a verbal to PC making 9 players listed as commitments from this team. Can any other coach/team make this claim? (notice I didn't say club) And signing date is still 2 months away.

Outstanding job by the 93's over the course of the past four days, but not surprising at all under Finotti.

Where has he been? I thought he's always been with CESA since he left Northwestern?


We didn’t underestimate them. They were a lot better than we thought.
