In the past week, North Texas SC has played twice, scratching out a 2-2 draw on the road in Lansing, Mich., and beating Forward Madison FC at home for the second time this season. North Texas has now firmly built a reputation as the best team in USL League One through roughly 25% of the season.
Most notably, North Texas went without any players from the first team in both games. Between injuries, callups, and a lack of depth, they've had to lean in even more on kids from the academy. Despite fielding the youngest and least experienced squads in the league, North Texas came away with 4 points.
