Red Bull Academy Update: July 28
Red Bull 1995s have seven selected for US U15 BNT camp
In all, 36 players from across the country will train from July 25-Aug. 1 in Zarephath, NJ under U15 National Team Coach Jim Barlow and his staff. The Red Bull Academy has the most representation of any program in the country.
"I think it's a great accomplishment for the club," stated Red Bull U14 head coach Cris da Silva. "We are trying to play soccer and we are doing it the right way."
The seven members of Red Bull Academy are: goalkeeper Santiago Castano (Union City, NJ), defender Matt Miazga (Clifton, NJ), and midfielders Russel Canouse (Lancaster, PA), Adam Najem (Clifton, NJ), John Toher (Blauvelt, NY), Shane Kronick (Westfield, NJ), and Zack Reed (Teaneck, NJ).
"Our goal for the program is to always identify the best players, and for them to have a goal to make the first team," stated da Silva. We are lucky enough to have a talented group that has had seven players receive invitations due to their talent. They all have a future in the sport."
The Red Bull U14s posted a 5-3-2 record this season in the prestigious US Club Soccer Northeast Pre-Academy League and took home the championship at the Massapequa Memorial Day Tournament.
In addition, the U17 MNT (and John Agudelo) took home the Copa Marcae title in Brazil, and Dilly Duka and the U20 MNT won both (match 1 / match 2) matches they played at the Copa Cuidad de Rosario in Argentina.
