The 2017 season was one for the books, as Real Salt Lake fielded some of its youngest players in starting roles all season long. One of those bright spots was none other than 20-year-old forward Brooks Lennon, who had a year he may never forget.
Hailing from Paradise Valley, Arizona, and coming up through the RSL Academy, Lennon has been a prodigy from the get-go. After leaving the academy, he signed with Premier League giants Liverpool in 2015 and began playing for their U-23 team, where he notched three goals and one assist through 19 appearances with the Reds.
