SKC Academy Graduates Eliminated from College Cup

No Sporting KC players will be competing in this year's College Cup. The final two schools with SKC academy graduates in it, Creighton and North Carolina both went out on penalty kicks in the Elite Eight. Eric DeJulio and Creighton hosted UMBC going 0-0 over 120 minutes before falling 4-3 on penalty kicks. DeJulio took one of Creighton's missed PKs. The other graduates, Andy Lopez and Zach Wright did not play for North Carolina as the Tar Heels came from 2-1 down to tie the game at 3-3. The teams then went through eight rounds of PKs before UCLA came out on top.
