Our Academy staff last year said that there was a player, Devon Sandoval, who they really thought was a quality player and wanted us to look at. We brought him into the train with the first team and of course we were able to select him in the second round last year and he did quite\u00a0really well with us. Events like this and working with our Academy have proven to be successful for us. We had our first Academy player start some games for us this year Carlos Salcedo. We are cautiously optimistic that we may add one and possibly even more Academy players ahead of next season. If that\u2019s the case that\u2019s a credit to the guys down here and the work that they put in. They won the U-16 National Championship this year and there are some special players on that team. The guys down here are doing everything right.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>NOTE: Click on one picture and a slider gallery will form.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>CASA GRANDE, Ariz. &#8211; Over 20 players are participating in Real Salt Lake\u2019s fourth annual Pro Combine at the Grande Sports Academy this week.
