The Charlotte Eagles, a men’s professional soccer team in Charlotte, North Carolina, plays in the Second Division of the United Soccer Leagues (USL) pro soccer. With over 200 wins, seven National Final appearances and two USL-2 National Championships since 1993, the Eagles are one of the United Soccer Leagues’ most storied and respected franchises. Lead by Hall of Fame Executive GM, Tom Engstrom and Hall of Fame Head Coach Mark Steffens, the Charlotte Eagles are also Charlotte’s most successful professional franchise. Success on the field though, is not the most important mark to the Eagles. The team remains most of all dedicated to providing role models to inspire and give hope to those in their local, and global communities who have none. Owned by Missionary Athletes International, the Charlotte Eagles continue to strive for excellence on and off the field.
The year of 2009 was no different for Charlotte. Charlotte fielded a team which included the 1st Team All League Player Jorge Herrera and 2nd Team All League Player Amaury Nunes. The Eagles 2009 season ended with a spectacular playoff run and a road loss in the USL-2 National Championship by the final score of 3-1 to the Richmond Kickers.
