Ochoa joins 21 other homegrown players from around the league chosen for the Homegrown Team, which will face Chivas de Guadalajara’s Under-20 team on July 30. The RSL keeper is one of five players on the homegrown roster featured from the United States squad that competed in the FIFA U-20 World Cup.
“It’s a bit surprising, but I’m really happy and excited to be a part of a special group of the best Homegrowns in the league,” Ochoa said in a statement. “It’s a great platform and it’s great to see that I’m on the same path as the other RSL players that have had the opportunity to play in the Homegrown Game.
