I thought it would be good to have a thread to track the success of MLS academies in their various tournaments. Chivas USA has one coming up that includes the U.S. team and a bunch of other club teams. They seem to be the most active in setting up and going out to such tournaments.

If im not mistaken I have heard Chivas USA is planning on hosting a similar tourney. Chivas USA U-19 team went to the copa saprissa and did pretty well, the performance shown in that cup helped Jorge Flores come up from the youth team to the pro team.
