While the older members of Sounders Academy had the weekend off, the U-14 and U-15 squads were in action on the road in Oregon. Each team played a pair of matches against older opposition in the Farwest Regional League, which is comprised of the top club sides from Washington, Oregon and Idaho. The young Sounders won all four matches as some of the club’s brightest prospects put in excellent performances.
On Saturday, both teams displayed their offensive firepower in matches against Oregon club powerhouse, BSC Portland. The U-15s lined up in a 3-5-2 in an effort to press high up the pitch and dominate the middle third.
