The FC Dallas Juniors U-16s and U-18 each earned draws versus local-side Dallas Texans on Saturday in their first games here at Pizza Hut Park. The strong wind and temperatures in the 40s weren't enough to keep family, friends, and fans of FC Dallas from turning out, as we had a couple hundred fans in attendance.
For the FCD U-16s, this was the 
first game it failed to win this year. Though dominating play, the team went down a goal in the first half. However Jonathan Top evened the score with five minutes left to play to keep the team undefeated. The U-18s had a similar result, going down a goal early in the second game. This time, it was London Woodberry who headed come a Cody Adams cross with three minutes to play to earn the tie.

Good to hear about the trunout. I would have been there if I was in town. What sort of league do the youth teams play in? Any thoughts of signing U-18's to the 1st team? LA Galaxy made history by signing one of their forwards from the youth team becoming the first player ever to go from youth to first. Pretty exciting stuff. GO FCD!
That LA story is a bit misleading. They do not have a youth setup.
Maybe someone from FCD would know. WIll the USYNT play some games in Texas? I know they classify the chicago teams with our division.
