Loudoun United might be out of the playoffs but at least they won't be "winning" the Wooden Spoon this year. The team took fliers on a few obscure players, and is saying goodbye to a few youths as they go on their way to playing under bigger spotlights in DC and abroad. Also, a new season begins for the DC United Academy, with a handful of players to keep an eye on and one name that may bring you some nostalgia.
