MARFU U23 Squad Announced for 2009 National All Star Championships

On behalf of the Mid Atlantic Under-23 Program, I'm pleased to announce the 2009 National All Star Championship Squad. Through the U23 Developmental Program, LAU Championsip, positional/skills camps, LAU and TU collegiate championships, and this weekend's grueling 2 day trial (attended by over 60 players), the following 24 players and 6 traveling reserves were identified for the June competition. Named players represent 18 different college, club, and U19 programs.

*Two players earned spots on the squad but are unavailable due to military commitments.

Special thanks go out to the University of Maryland for hosting this weekend's camp, and the many MARFU club programs for hosting players and providing senior players for the final camp scrimmage: DC Furies, Nova, Norfolk, Chesapeake, Stingers, Philadelphia, Pax River, and Exiles.

Named players will receive a follow up communication from the coaching and management staff with event details. Congratulations and thank you to all the participants!
