The Real Salt Lake Academy sides returned to the America First Field pitch for the first time in nearly a month as the U-17s and U-19s hosted San Diego Surf on Saturday. The U-17s toppled the visitors 3-0 in the first match of the day before the U-19s trounced Surf 8-0.
Kicking off proceedings in Sandy were the U-17s led by FW Ben Ortiz who had a hand in all three of RSL’s goals as he added two more goals to his name – bringing his season total to eight – before adding an assist to MF Julian Vazquez in the 89th minute.
