It’s been an amazing week for Sounders Academy prospects Alfonso Ocampo-Chavez and Josh Atencio.
Within hours of leading the young Sounders to their second consecutive Youdan Trophy title, U.S. Soccer announced that both players had been called in to represent the U.S. U-15 Youth National Team at the upcoming CONCACAF Championships. This is the second call-up for the pair in the last three months, with Ocampo-Chavez and Atencio leading the Stars and Stripes to victory at the Torneo Delle Nazioni in Gradisca d’Isonzo, Italy, back in May.
Head Coach Dan Van Den Bergh unveiled his 18-man roster for the tournament, which will run from August 13-19 at the IMG Academy in Bradenton, Fla.
