After enduring months without competitive soccer, players from more than 50 area clubs will have a chance to compete this weekend in the second annual Penn Fusion Summer Showcase not only against other area teams but in front of college coaches.
Some 90 Division III and Junior College coaches have registered for the showcase, which comes as most programs have already canceled or postponed the fall season due to concerns over the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic. About 40 programs were represented when it was held for the first time last summer.
While not sanctioned for Division I and II coaches to be on site, a video service will enable players to get something they haven’t been able to get in the past four months: video highlights.
