Growing up as a soccer player in Katy, it made sense for Michael Nelson to be a Dynamo fan.
Nelson threw plenty of orange streamers and idolized fellow goalkeeper and Dynamo legend Pat Onstad as he watched games with his family at Robertson Stadium.
The next time his family watches a home game, Nelson may not be with them in the stands. He could be playing for the Dynamo.
One of Nelson's dreams came true Friday morning when the Dynamo picked him in the first round of the MLS SuperDraft. The No. 20 overall selection will have an opportunity to make the team and begin his professional career as close to his hometown as possible.
