From College to the Pros - The US soccer ladder

Want to see the MLS stars of tomorrow, find your local PDL team...

The United Soccer Leagues compete on a few levels with USL 1, USL 2, PDL, and Super Y for the men. This summer, check out the local PDL team if you want to see some future MLS stars.

The first 2006 PDL team of the week has an Englishman who scored a hat trick and assisted on two more goals, a youngster who has played for the US U-20 & U-18 national teams and a host of other up and comers. MLS coaches know to keep an eye on the PDL season and you will see some of these names at the MLS combine next year.

Charlie Davies is playing for Westchester, just north of New York City in New Rochelle. His name is already flying around as going to Europe or coming out of school early for MLS. He completed his sophomore season at Boston College and continues to win praise. He's played for the US U-20 & U-18 teams. Additionally he was a high school all-American his senior season.

unfortunately at this time the PDL website does not have a good list of players and where they're playing this summer. Check back and I'll keep an eye on the league and who is playing well and where. For now, if you live in the Westchester area, get out to a game to see Davies. He's a future pro for sure.
