On Sunday, US U-20 midfielder/defender Caleb Stanko earned impressive silverware.

Stanko, 18, started and played a full 90 for Freiburg's U-19 team as they defeated Hertha Berlin 2-1 in the finals of the U-19 German Cup. Hertha Berlin started US U-20 central defender John Anthony Brooks and Jerome Kisewetter who has also been making the transition from forward to defender.

Despite being a club in a financial tailspin, Stabaek will be heading to the Europa League on fair play.
