First of all ... CONGRATULATIONS to DSC.. a very good team... Know some of the boys and wish them all well.
Second... The academy has had an impact but not to the extent I believe everyone thinks it has. As someone said DSC would give a run to many academy teams
Third - SC United (Bridge) is the only SC Academy because USSF only selected one from SC (the lone applicant Bridge). You must be selected to the USSF Academy.
Fourth - Dom Wren current DSC coach is shown as an SC United coach for next year. I am willing to bet the younger players in DSC are in the Academy here or in Charlotte next year.
And lastly, why would anyone belittle the accomplishment of reaching the USYSA national finals. This is no different than someone winning the NCAAs or HS championship all appropriate in the scope they are in. Otherwise unless your kid plays and wins the world cup in 2010.... then... well it just was not a good season... I guess
