TUSC 2003 Boys NPL Champions

The TUSC 03 Boys NPL team has claimed the club’s first ever National Championship by winning the NPL Finals in Colorado this July 2022!

 

From US Club Soccer:

 

BOYS: Tennessee United SC (South Atlantic Premier League) 1 [6], Sockers FC Chicago (NISL NPL Division) 1 [5]

The U-19 boys age group did not participate in either NPL Playoff event two weeks prior to the Finals, as the oldest age group is a single-stage postseason. So, 14 teams from coast to coast competed in Colorado for the title. Tennessee United SC and Sockers FC Chicago were the only teams to win every group stage game. Tennessee United knocked off Pateadores SC (SOCAL Discovery NPL) in the semifinals and then edged Sockers FC in the championship game. The score was 1-1 after regulation and overtime, and ultimately, Tennessee United converted six penalty kicks to Sockers FC’s five. “Adversity has been the theme of our club the whole year. We just push through everything,” said Tennessee United SC player Hayden Vonlobstein. “And for a couple boys from Tennessee to come and beat some of the best teams in the nation… no one really gave us a chance when we came here, and now look at us, we won it all, so it’s surreal.”
