MESQUITE, Texas - The Texas Outlaws are proud to announce that two of the squad’s players, David Ortiz and Sebastian Mendez, were selected to represent the MASL’s USA team, and showcased their exceptional talents in the recent USA vs. Mexico match on September 10th at Toyota Arena in Ontario, California in front of a packed and passionate crowd.


This highly anticipated rivalry match was a thrilling exhibition of the top indoor soccer talent from both nations, USA and Mexico.


Amidst the electric atmosphere, the two Texas Outlaw players representing the USA, Ortiz and Mendez, were standouts during the match, demonstrating their skills, determination, and impact they had on the match outcome, resulting in a win for the USA, 6-5. 


Sebastian Mendez, a fan favorite known for his quick and energetic personality on and off the field, lived up to his reputation as a game-changer.
