January 16, 2017 - Congratulations to Brian Wright on being drafted by the New England Revolution in the first round (20th pick) of the 2017 MLS Super Draft. Brian played for our Boy's Academy Manager Coach Tom Croft from U15-U18.

Coach Tom attended the draft in Los Angeles this past week to support Brian on his next step in his career.

Tom said"  I am very proud and happy that Brian was selected in the first round of the MLS Draft.  He has worked very hard from the first time I had him in training as a youth player.  Brian has excelled at the college level and I am sure he will be a terrific professional.  He is a role model for our local players, working both on and off the field."
