Summer is almost here, and the finish line is in sight for area soccer clubs competing in the Central Pennsylvania Youth Soccer League (CPYSL) and United Recreational Soccer League (URSL).
For 10 local squads, dreams of undefeated seasons on the pitch are very much still alive and well.
The Chambersburg-based Union Soccer Club (USC) has set the standard for area club programs with five undefeated teams in the CPYSL. Three boys squads — the U11 Raiders (6-0-1), U13 United (4-0), and U14 Lightning (7-0) — have combined to paste their opponents by a 93-24 score this spring. Two USC girls teams also have unbeaten records: The U9 Tornadoes (3-0-2) and U9 Storm (3-0-3).
Greencastle United Soccer Club has an undefeated team of its own in the CPYSL. The U10 Hammer, a boys team, is 6-0 in Division 3-South and outscoring its competition by a combined 44-13 score.
In the URSL, there are three unbeaten teams hailing from the Waynesboro Youth Soccer Association — the Warriors (6-0), Gold (5-0), and Blue (3-0-2) — while Smithsburg Youth Athletics is highlighted by two teams that have yet to taste defeat: Young (4-0) and Unger (4-0-1).
