FRISCO, Texas — A year after a thrilling run to the MLS Next Cup semifinal, FC Delco’s 2005 team is back to their cup-winning ways as the last non-MLS remaining team in the U17 cup after upsetting the Seattle Sounders on Monday.

One of the favorites to win the competition after winning the Generation adidas Cup in April, FC Delco beat the academy heavyweights 3-2. Seattle conceded only one goal en route to their GA Cup title.

Joe McDaid gave FC Delco an early lead and after Seattle drew level an own goal off a dangerous ball from McDaid led to a 2-1 lead at the break.
