Happy Birthday Nicole!

Nicole Barnhart, the WNT back up goalie, turned 27 on October 10. Happy Birthday!

3 more games

The USA WNT will contiue their "Achieve Your Gold" with a 3 game series against South Korea. The first game will be on November 1 in Richmond, Virgina. The second will be on November 5 in Cincinnati, Ohio and the third will be on November 8 in Tampa, Florida.

The USA should be playing another 4 games after these 3 are over.

Another Draft

Sorry I haven't been blogging in awhile. Things have gotten kind of busy and the team is on a 3 week break.

But, on October 6, the WPS held the General Draft. The players in this draft are out of college. Some of them have played on the USA WNT for some games and rosters. I think that these are the players to watch as they will greatly improve and maybe make it onto the national team.

Round One
1. Washington Freedom:Sarah Huffman
2. Bay Area:Jill Oakes
3. Washington Freedom: Becky Sauerbrunn
4. Boston Breakers: Amy LePeilbet
