FC Tulsa News Release


TULSA - It was a disappointing preseason debut for FC Tulsa as it fell to MLS' Houston Dynamo FC 3-0 at Ellis Field in College Station, Texas on Wednesday afternoon. Two hard luck first half goals and a third against the run of play early in the second half were more than enough for Houston to slide past Tulsa in a steady rain.

Lots of faces, including some new ones, saw action on Wednesday. Among them were local academy signing Tony Mota and recent local goalkeeper signing Austin Wormell, who made their preseason debuts.
