Once again we kick off our FC Dallas rosters for all the club’s sides in the Dallas Cup with the U19s.
The FCD 19s always include a few roster oddities; like players coming down from FC Dallas and North Texas SC or some U17s (2007s), who are playing in the GA Cup at the same time. You never know who the club might need.
That makes this roster quite big.
Important note: Dallas Cup rosters are now yet final (3/23).
Don’t see a name you think should be here? Take it up with FCD. I just list the names the Dallas Cup gave me.
FC Dallas U19s
The 19s won the Super Group in 2017, becoming only the 2nd US team to do so after the Dallas Texans in 2006, who were led by Omar Gonzalez. (Yes, the same guy.)
Head Coach: Chuy Vera
The FCD U19s currently sit in 2nd place in the U19 Frontier Division on 2.67 points per game (5-0-1).
Buzz’s Watch List
This one is pretty simple, it’s the guys coming “down” from FC Dallas and North Texas SC: Dylan Lacy, Anthony Ramirez, and Malachi Molina.
A few of the actual U19s that have caught my eye are Jared Salazar, Daniel Baran, Chris Gallo, and Luke Shreiner. I look forward to seeing them against Super Group talent. I would have included Mason Grimm but he’s out.
