Academy Standouts: 2021 Summer, Week 4
Academy Standouts highlights the players who performed best in the most recent week of NA Academy play. I’ll discuss a few of the most noteworthy standouts, then list some other players whose performances caught my eye below.
Kumo, Top, FlyQuest Academy
Last week I included Kumo in the “additional standouts” and wrote:
If he can keep up that level he can definitely become a player to watch once again.
Well, he delivered an even stronger week this time around, driving FLY Academy to a 4-0 week over Golden Guardians Academy and Dignitas Academy (which may not sound like the stiffest opposition until you note that DIGA 2-0ed C9 Academy in their other series this week).
