Real Salt Lake’s trip to Southern California proved to be a productive one indeed – the Arizona-based Academy had little travel on a trip to San Diego, with the U18s winning 2-0 over the Surf, and the U16s with a 4-1 win. The trip also featured a trip to take on Nomads SC, which RSL U18s won 3-0 and drew 1-1.

The LA Galaxy split a pair of matches with Chivas USA at the Home Depot Center over the weekend, in a typically close encounter.

Also making the trip up to Minnesota for a packed weekend was the Chicago Magic. By winning three of the four games, the Magic showed that they’re going to be in the mix in the Mid-American Division throughout the season. The U18s beat the Thunder Academy and Shattuck-Saint Mary’s by identical 1-0 score lines, while the U16s lost 1-0 to the Thunder and won 3-2.

Meetings between the Baltimore Bays and D.C. United get typically heated, as their geographical proximity fosters a nice rivalry. It was a banner day for United, as the U18s won 3-0 and the U16s picked up a narrow 1-0 victory. Abdi Yusuf’s brace for the U18s proved critical.

Making the trip south to Richmond from the Philadelphia area was FC Delco and PA Classics, using it as a chance to go up against the Strikers and the Kickers.
