The U-23 camp will run from October 6 thru 15 with the first round of the 2019 Audi MLS Playoffs scheduled to start on either October 19 or 20.
“We are thrilled for our young players to continue to get opportunities to represent their country at the U-23 level. They have all shown commitment to grow and develop since they came to our academy and have continues that hard work throughout their time at RSL and have caught Jason’s eye. It’s also a great opportunity for David to move up to the U-23s and get some time training with an older age group,” RSL Interim Head Coach Freddy Juarez said. “We wish them all success and I know they will each take advantage of the opportunities they’ve earned.”
