SAN ANTONIO – San Antonio FC announced on Thursday night it had signed midfielder and San Antonio native Devin Vega for the upcoming 2017 USL season. The signing is pending league and federation approval.

Vega joins SAFC from the prestigious FC Dallas (MLS) Academy where he has played since the beginning of the 2015 season, scoring 14 goals in 39 official Developmental Academy appearances.
