U17s and U18s to Face Some of the USA’s Best
October 27, 2001
The Jersey Shore Boca U17 and U18 men’s teams were informed that both teams will face some of the best competition that our nation has to offer when they travel to Raleigh, NC for the 2001 First Union Raleigh Shootout over November 10th and 11th.
The Boca U17s will square off against Region II powerhouse sides from the Greensboro Soccer Club (NC) and Greenville FC from South Carolina. In addition, they will go against the strong Arsenal Premiere from Michigan.
The U18s are no different, as they will face the nationally known Albion Hurricanes from Texas and Jackson Futbol Club out of Mississippi. In addition, the Boca U18s drew a showcase night game in Raleigh’s Championship Stadium against the Region II semi-finalists Blackwatch Royals from Florida.
Historically, many teams from Jersey Shore Boca have been accepted to the 1st Union Raleigh Shootout throughout the tournament’s 20-year history.
The 1st Union Raleigh Shootout is one of the most visible college recruiting events in the United States. Approximately 400 college coaches from all levels are expected to attend this year’s tournament.
