Another season has come and gone for college soccer, but this one will be one of the more memorable ones. Due to the unprecedented impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on global life, many college programs delayed the start of their 2020 season to the Spring of 2021. For some teams, though, this offered a preview into a two-season competition schedule that has been rumored for several years to be coming to college soccer.
Atlanta United’s diaspora of talented academy products made a sizable impact on this season, especially in the always-competitive Atlantic Coast Conference. With that number growing each season, and with the first group of former players concluding their senior seasons, fans should expect to see a steady flow of Homegrown players returning to the program in due time.
