Athletic Club KC Academy Deal Eclipse 9-5 Setback
The Athletic Club KC Academy put the giddy home crowd in an even more jubilant mood after beating the Northville Eclipse in the season opener at KC Academy Field. Left Fielder Richard Younger won player of the game plaudits for Athletic Club KC Academy. He went 3 for 4 with a triple, 2 singles, and a walk. He drove in 2 runs and scored once.

The game turned with one out in the bottom of the seventh when Younger, the 28 overall pick in the 2026 draft, hit a run-scoring single. It propelled the Athletic Club KC Academy into the lead, 4-3.

"I was able to barrel up some pitches," said Younger.
