Sacramento Republic FC News Release


Sacramento's Youth Academy squads have risen to the challenge in recent weeks, taking on tough competition from across the West Coast. This past weekend, the U-15, U-16, and U-17 sides each faced off against their counterparts from MLS club Real Salt Lake and performed well in hostile territory. The schedule doesn't get any easier; this weekend, Sacramento welcomes MLS side Portland Timbers for a slate of matches Saturday and Albion SC Merced on Sunday.

Strong showings from both the U-15 and U-16 squads each challenged the Utah side.

After 30 minutes even in the second half, a 77th minute goal from the home side went down as the decider. The U-16s played well in a tight affair for all 90 minutes, but fell 1-0.

Sacramento's U-17 side claimed a 2-1 win over their Utah foes, coming from behind late to take all three points. After going down in the 26th minute of the match, Sacramento dug deep and kept RSL out of net for the rest of the contest.
