RISING: Josh Sargent
8:23
<p>To say the past 18 months have been a whirlwind for Josh Sargent would be an understatement. The O'Fallon, Mo., product went from guiding the U-17 MNT to World Cup qualification to becoming a late add on the U-20 MNT roster at their World Cup in Korea Republic. After winning the Silver Boot, Sargent returned to captain the U-17s at the World Cup in India and signing a high-profile contract with German side Werder Bremen all before becoming the second-youngest MNT player to score in his debut this past May against Bolivia.
