Last year, the New York Red Bulls staged a combine featuring college players that unearthed some useful talent. Big Apple Soccer identified 25 players who tried out for the club at the end of 2015, and three of them - Vincent Bezecourt, Tim Schmoll, and Florian Valot - landed with NYRB II, putting in significant contributions to the team's run to the USL's regular season and Championship titles.
Indeed, all three of those players are still attached to the II team and seem likely to continue their professional development as Red Bulls for at least another season.
