The San Diego Legion Academy won the MAAC academy/select side tournament Saturday at Mount St. Mary's.
The Legion beat the Sabercats Academy 24-7 in the final of this U19 tournament.
The Legion were led by the Belmont Shore star prop Max Amasio but the Sabercats put the Legion under pressure early. Two early penalty attempts by the Sabercats went wide.
The Mid-Atlantic Academy Championships (MAAC) kicks off tomorrow at Mount St. Mary's with eight U19 boys teams, three U16 boys teams, and two U19 girls teams competing.
These are select sides from various regions as well as MLR academy sides. This is an expansion, really, of a series of games from the fall between DC Young Glory, the NCYRU, and the Ohio Aviators.
They left it late, but not too late.
