With ascension of Neil Pierre, Union could continue trend of talented brothers

The Union's developmental pipeline has, in recent years, been defined by sets of brothers. The Aaronsons (Brenden and Paxten) have moved from Medford to the first team to Europe. Next on the conveyor belt are the Pierre brothers, albeit with a twist. As older brother Nelson Pierre finds his way in the soccer world away from Philadelphia, younger brother Neil Pierre is one of the Union's most promising Academy products, at the center of Union II's ongoing playoff run.
