As the summer amateur soccer season winds down, several members of the 2019 Bradley Soccer team are gearing up for playoff runs. Junior forward Gerit Wintermeyer ranks among the top scorers in USL League Two and has helped Chicago FC United become the first team to clinch a playoffs spot, while junior midfielder Mikey Conneh has helped AFC Mobile clinch a spot in the Gulf Coast Premier League playoffs with two regular-season matches remaining.

Among the newcomers freshman forward Danny Collins has helped St. Louis FC advance to the United States Soccer Development Academy Final Four, which will take place July 8 at the Orange County Great Park Soccer Complex. Collins will be joined in the pursuit of a national championship by freshman defender Daniel Chandler (front row right in second Tweet below), who has helped FC Dallas 01 Premier reach the US Youth Soccer 18U National Championship by winning the Southern Regional this past weekend in Baton Rouge, LA.
