CASA GRANDE, Ariz. – Real Salt Lake-Arizona Academy U-15/16 walked away with three must-have points on Saturday with a 4-1 win over Santa Cruz Breakers Academy, inching them up the Development Academy standings with four games left to play and the playoffs within sight.

Nikolai Shumov opened the scoring just three minutes into the second half, with Jesus “Chuy” Garcia doubling the lead on his first Academy goal only ten minutes later. After a goal from Santa Cruz’s Nicholas Courtright to bring the game back within one, two late goals from Juan Mora and Robby Orona sealed the 4-1 win.
