Bryan Gamez, an 18-year-old senior soccer player at Thomas Jefferson High School, looks through the field house window while waiting out a rain delay before a game on February 24, 2018 in Dallas. Bryan, who was born in El Salvador, emigrated with his mother and younger brother in 2014 after he was recruited by Mara Salvatrucha, one of the largest street gangs in Central America. For the past four years, Gamez and his family have acclimated to American life while their asylum request has remained unsettled.
