Four college players receive USWNT call-ups
Four current Division I women's college standouts were call up to a U.S. Women's National Team camp scheduled for October 18-28 in Commerce City, Colo.
Jaelin Howell (Florida State), Naomi Girma, Catarina Macario (Stanford) and Mia Fishel (UCLA) were named to the camp by head coach Vlatko Andonovski on Thursday. Three of the four play in the Pac-12, which isn't competing in the fall. Macario is pursuing U.S. citizenship but isn't eligible to represent the USA at the moment.
“We’re looking forward to getting this group together in Colorado and we really like the mix of players as far as age, experience level and positions,” said Andonovski. “We are very aware that the players also have had different levels of activity over the past few months, so we’ll definitely take that into account as we run this camp. As we finally get back on the field, I know our players and staff are really looking forward to training together again.”
