FOXBOROUGH, Mass. - The New England Revolution Academy's Under-18 and Under-15 teams concluded their 2025-26 MLS NEXT seasons at the annual MLS NEXT Cup in Salt Lake City, Utah. After both sides fell in the first round of the Homegrown Playoff bracket, the U-18s and U-15s continued postseason action in the Showcase bracket to close out the year.

The U-18s fell in their opening match of the tournament, dropping a 4-3 decision to St. Louis City SC on Sunday, May 24. St. Louis opened the scoring with two goals, but Cristiano Carlos (2008 - Chicopee, Mass.) set up Matthew Jean Baptiste (2010 - Montvale, N.J.) in the 54th minute to put New England on the board. St. Louis responded two minutes later to restore its two-goal advantage, before Carlos struck again in the 62nd minute off a feed from Judah Siqueira (2009 - Easton, Mass.) to keep the Revolution within reach. New England added a third in the 89th minute through Paolo Tornberg (2009 - Revere, Mass.), but a 78th-minute tally from St. Louis proved to be the difference.

In the Showcase bracket, the U-18s captured a 3-2 victory over Orlando City SC on Monday, May 25. Orlando struck twice in the first half, but New England responded with three unanswered goals after the break. Daniel Dixon (2008 - Yardley, Pa.) and Jean Baptiste both scored in the second half, with the latter setting up Grant Emerhi (2008 - Mansfield, Mass.) for the game winner in the 82nd minute. In the Revolution's final match of the tournament on Wednesday, May 27, Miami edged out a narrow 1-0 win.

In the U-16 Homegrown bracket, the U-15s Revolution battled Barca Residency Academy to a 1-1 draw before ultimately falling, 4-3, in the ensuing penalty shootout on Saturday, May 23. New England struck first in the 28th minute when Shayne Dos Santos (2011 - Arlington, Mass.) slotted home an unassisted tally. Barca equalized in the 76th minute, sending the match to penalties, where the Revolution came up short.

On Sunday, May 24, in the Showcase bracket, the U-15s fell 1-0 to the Houston Dynamo, before dropping a 5-3 decision to the San Jose Earthquakes on Tuesday, May 26. Against San Jose, Musah Adamu (2011 - Manchester, Conn.) bagged a brace, while Davi Pereira (2011 - Revere, Mass.) added another goal. Boston Kahoalii (2012 - Whitman, Mass.) also appeared on the scoresheet, providing the assist on Adamu's second tally.

All five New England Revolution Academy teams will return to action in September to begin the 2026-27 MLS NEXT campaign. CLICK HERE to learn more about the New England Revolution Academy.
