New York Red Bulls II had one of the most successful seasons in USL's short (it dates back to 2011) history. The RBNY reserve team won the league's regular-season title. Along the way, it set some USL regular-season records: most points (69); most goals (61); most wins (21 - the league season is only 30 games); most away wins (13 - with an unbalanced schedule since NYRB II played a scheduled home game on the road to allow Red Bull Arena to nurture its playing surface).
And the team conceded the fewest goals in the league in 2016 (21), and shutout its opponents 16 times en route to the Shield awarded the team with the best regular-season record.
