Give youth a chance


Matt Zimmerman's last piece for the Press-Telegram was an interesting look at the new MLS youth program.

It might include some of these guys, who are on the U18 team that's currently training at the Home Depot Center. The U18 team is kind of the 'tweener squad, with no major competitions or World Cups for that age level. Still, they often tour and compete abroad. Some players who do well on the U18 squad make the U20 one the next year.
