It should be mentioned, the stated goal of the Swope Park Rangers is to develop talent from Sporting Kansas City and to bridge the gap between the SKC Academy to the first team. The goal is not to win games. That said, in their three years of existence, SPR have won quite a lot of games.
The 2018 season, while not as successful as the 2016 and 2017 seasons, was still pretty good overall. It’s hard to replicate the success of the first two seasons, both of which ended with runs all the way to the USL Cup Playoff Finals.
