It’s three weeks into the youth travel soccer season, and we’ve counted at least five area teams who have yet to taste defeat this season.
Three of those squads hail from the Union Soccer Club, part of the Chambersburg Youth Soccer Association: The U11 United, U13 Titans, and U16 Valiant. All three of these boys teams have compiled unbeaten records from competition in the Central Pennsylvania Youth Soccer League.
The Waynesboro Youth Soccer Association has a pair of undefeated squads of its own. The WYSA’s Thunder and Gladiators, a pair of co-ed sixth-grade teams, are both undefeated in United Recreational Soccer League play.
Below is a league-by-league, team-by-team look at how squads in the Local.News area are performing so far this season:
