A shortened season didn’t put a damper on Joseph Farouz from building on his most successful season with the Dynamo Academy. The forward led the U-15 squad in goals with 14 and earned a share of the Brian Ching Golden Boot last season.
Following the end of the U.S. Soccer Development Academy season, Farouz trained at home navigating the pandemic like the rest of his teammates. The 15-year-old was thrilled to return to Houston Sports Park in August and a few weeks after the return to organized team activity, Farouz found himself away from his teammates once again.
