ECNL Boys All-Americans and National Players of the Year revealed

RICHMOND, Va. – The ECNL Boys announced the 2022-23 All-America Teams for the U15-U18/19 age groups, as well as the league’s Players of the Year at each of these four age groups.

Zach Hume (U15 Crossfire Premier), Jake Basinet (U16 San Diego Surf), Griffin Garnett (U17 Richmond United), and Dylan Groeneveld (U18/19 San Diego Surf) were each named Players of the Year for their respective age groups, the highest honors in the ECNL.

The All-America Teams represent players from every ECNL Boys Conference and were selected by a technical committee of club directors from across the entire league who voted on eligible players. Player eligibility for All-America Team selection came from recent appointment into an ECNL All-Conference Team, 2022-23 Conference strength as determined by regular season and postseason performance metrics, and an evaluation of ECNL Postseason performances by members of the ECNL Boys National Selection Staff.
