North Texas SC makes its long-awaited debut in USL League One this Saturday, taking on another brand new team, Chattanooga Red Wolves SC. It's the first competitive game for a brand new team in a brand new league, and there's a lot to be excited about. Here's everything you need to know ahead of Saturday's match.
THE TEAM
North Texas SC is the professional second team for FC Dallas, playing in the new 3rd-division USL League One. The purpose of the team is to offer meaningful minutes to the academy and SuperDraft signings who aren't quite ready for MLS, test out top academy prospects at a professional level, and to allow players recovering from injuries to ease back into playing again.
