Detroit is no stranger to tales of dedication, hard work, and success. Oscar Huerta’s story is quickly becoming its latest. Born on March 1, 2006, at the Henry Ford Hospital in Detroit, this young football prodigy is already making waves in the world of soccer.

From an early age, it was evident that Oscar had a passion for soccer. At the tender age of four, he started playing with Club Detroit Pumas. Not only did he play, but he shined, being the leading scorer for nine consecutive years. His dedication, skill, and consistency on the field made him a standout.

However, Oscar’s path veered in a sudden upward trajectory when, as a 16-year-old, he decided to try out for Alianza FC, a first-year semi-pro soccer team based in his neighborhood of Southwest Detroit. Oscar’s decision was not just based on ambition; he wanted to be a part of something special, something that resonated with his roots. Alianza FC, with its mission of nurturing local talent like Oscar and giving them a platform to achieve greater heights, was the perfect fit.

He did not just make the team; he went down in club history as its first scorer and flourished the rest of the season. Within just over a year, his undeniable talent caught the attention of many, including several Division 1 Collegiate programs. Michigan State University and many others have extended scholarship offers already. FC Cincinnati from the MLS also noticed this young talent and offered him a tryout, which led to an immediate invitation to their prestigious U-19 Academy team.

While these achievements would be enough to make anyone proud, Oscar’s tastes remain humble and rooted in his background. A devout fan of the football teams America from Mexico and Barcelona from Spain, his admiration for Lionel Messi is unwavering. And when it comes to music, Oscar stays close to home. His favorite band, ‘Los De La Nueva Herencia,’ was started and has as its lead singer his older brother Carlos Jr.

Oscar’s accomplishments have filled his parents, Carlos sr. and Mary Huerta, with immense pride. They have witnessed his growth from a young child with a ball at his feet to a rising star in the soccer world. Their unwavering support and belief in Oscar’s dreams have been a constant in his life.

Oscar Huerta may be on the path to achieve great things in the world of football, but one thing is certain: his heart will forever belong to Alianza FC, his hometown team. It is the team that provided him with the platform, belief, and opportunity to showcase his talent to the world.

As Oscar’s story continues to unfold, one thing is clear: Detroit has a new star to cheer for, and his name is Oscar Huerta.

Oscar Huerta: La Estrella Emergente de Southwest Detroit

Detroit no es ajena a historias de dedicación, trabajo duro y éxito. La historia de Oscar Huerta rápidamente se está convirtiendo en la más reciente. Nacido el 1 de marzo de 2006 en el Hospital Henry Ford en Detroit, este joven prodigio del fútbol ya está causando sensación en el mundo del deporte.

Desde temprana edad, era evidente que Oscar tenía una pasión por el fútbol. A la tierna edad de 4 años, comenzó a jugar con el Club Detroit Pumas. No solo jugaba, sino que brillaba, siendo el máximo goleador durante nueve años consecutivos. Su dedicación, habilidad y consistencia en el campo lo hicieron destacar.

Sin embargo, el camino de Oscar tomó un giro ascendente cuando, a los 16 años, decidió probar suerte en Alianza FC, un equipo de fútbol semiprofesional con sede en su barrio del suroeste de Detroit. La decisión de Oscar no se basaba solo en la ambición; quería ser parte de algo especial, algo que resonara con sus raíces. Alianza FC, con su misión de nutrir talentos locales como Oscar y brindarles una plataforma para alcanzar mayores alturas, era el ajuste perfecto.

No solo hizo el equipo; pasó a la historia del club como su primer goleador y floreció el resto de la temporada. En poco más de un año, su talento innegable llamó la atención de muchos, incluidos varios programas colegiales de División 1. Michigan State University y muchos otros ya le han extendido ofertas de becas. Incluso el FC Cincinnati de la MLS notó a este joven talento y le ofreció una prueba, que llevó a una invitación inmediata a su prestigioso equipo de la academia U-19.

Aunque estos logros serían suficientes para enorgullecer a cualquiera, los gustos de Oscar siguen siendo humildes y arraigados en su origen. Un devoto aficionado de los equipos de fútbol América de México y Barcelona de España, su admiración por Lionel Messi es inquebrantable. Y cuando se trata de música, Oscar permanece cerca de casa. Su banda favorita, ‘Los De La Nueva Herencia’, fue fundada y tiene como su cantante principal a su hermano mayor Carlos Jr.

Los logros de Oscar han llenado de inmenso orgullo a sus padres, Carlos Sr. y Mary Huerta. Han sido testigos de su crecimiento desde un niño pequeño con un balón en los pies hasta convertirse en una estrella emergente en el mundo del fútbol. Su apoyo inquebrantable y creencia en los sueños de Oscar han sido una constante en su vida.

Oscar Huerta puede estar en camino de lograr grandes cosas en el mundo del fútbol, pero una cosa es segura: su corazón siempre pertenecerá a Alianza FC, su equipo del barrio. Es el equipo que ayudo con la creencia y la oportunidad de mostrar su talento al a los que miraban de re-ojo a jugardores de Detroit.

A medida que la historia de Oscar continúa desarrollándose, algo queda claro: Detroit tiene una nueva estrella por la que animar, y su nombre es Oscar Huerta.
