Victor Mansaray named to U.S. U-18 roster

Victor Mansaray's wild season shows no signs of slowing down anytime soon. Fresh off his trip to Oklahoma with Sounders 2, the 18-year-old high school senior will now join the United States' U18 team for a training camp in Bosnia from April 22-May 1 that will feature friendlies against Bosnian Premier Liga club NIK Siroki Brijeg on April 25 and the Bosnia U18s on April 28.

Since signing a Homegrown Player contract with the Seattle Sounders late last season, Mansaray has seen his stock rise considerably. In addition to becoming a fixture in the youth national team setup -- most recently featuring in the U18s trip to the Copa Chivas tournament -- Mansaray has become the youngest player to ever play for the Sounders, picked up his first professional assist in S2's season opener and proved himself a handful for MLS defenders.

You may remember him from when he did this:

The call-up means Mansaray will miss the Sounders' match against the Portland Timbers on Sunday and could keep him out of their match at New York City FC on May 3.
