Jeffrey Aguilar
Jeffrey Aguilar
Aguilar has committed to playing college soccer next season at James Madison University. An expert dribbler with speed to burn, Aguilar is the centerpiece in the midfield for both his club side Alexandria and at his High School TC Williams. He has excellent field vision and can both make timely passes and quick runs with relative ease. JMU likes to build attacking chances through their spine, which will fit Aguilar’s skillset perfectly.
Tucker has committed to playing college soccer next season at Loyola University (MD). A dynamic midfielder that can help build attacking chances from the center of the pitch, Tucker orchestrates attacks with his superb dribbling skills and precision passing. For McDonogh High School this season, he played a big role in the side in pushing a young McDonogh side into the MIAA Quarterfinals. In addition to his work in the midfield, he is a superb corner and free kick taker and can turn difficult opportunities into dangerous chances. At Pipeline, he just led the side through an undefeated record at the ECNL Arizona Showcase.
Morris has committed to playing college soccer next season at Emory University. A tall (6’1″), strong target forward, Morris can take on multiple defenders at a time and can also deliver superb passes to teammates making late runs into the box. He possesses a cracking right foot which he has used from time to time to hit a shot from distance. But the Loudoun SC targetman can also make the soft, clever pass making him a very solid addition for Emory. He was a member of the Clarke County side that won the 2022 VA High School State Championship and was First Team All-State.
Parker has verbally committed to playing college soccer in 2024 at the United States Naval Academy. The 5’10” is an immediate difference-maker on both ends of the pitch for the Midshipmen, able to make strong defensive tackles and switch the field of play quickly for both his high school and club side. At Armour, he can make those quick transitions look easy with solid passes from both feet or a long cross to a surging attacker.
Helfrich has committed to playing college soccer next season at Georgetown University. The midfielder from Virginia has excellent ball distribution skills and can move his teammates from a defensive posture to an attacking one. When receiving passes or crosses into the air he maintains excellent control and can deliver timely passes off of one touch. Through his U15-U19 career at Bethesda, he has continued to work on his finishing and is now a consistent player in the MLSNext sides attack. The Hoyas like to send multiple attackers into the box and so look for Helfrich to contribute immediately to the side next fall.

Dulin has committed to playing college soccer next season at Washington and Lee University. The speedy defender can cover a large amount of space and has at times been used as a defensive midfielder for both his high school side Severna Park and his club side Baltimore Armour. Dulin is very efficient with both his passes and his timing, lacing quick, accurate balls out to his teammates to spread the field. In the Maryland 4A State Championships he held a tough Bowie High School side at bay for close to eighty minutes. He was just named to the Anne Arundel County All-First Team.
