COLLEGE STATION, Texas – Sophomore Mikaela Harvey and incoming freshman Ally Watt were invited to join this week's United States Soccer Under-20 Women's National Team training camp after a successful stint with the unit in early March.
The duo will head to the camp from April 11-18 at the U.S. Soccer National Training Center in Carson, California.
Harvey and Watt were among 24 players selected by U.S. head coach Michelle French. The age group is focusing on qualifying for the 2016 FIFA U-20 Women's World Cup which will be held in Papau New Guinea.
The team will train in conjunction with the U19 national team and will play split-squad matches against USC and UCLA on Friday, April 17.
In March, Harvey and Watt helped propel the United States U20 squad to a 3-0 record at the Ten Nations tournament in La Manga, Spain, combining for three of the team's six goals at the event. Harvey scored the Americans' first goal in a 2-0 win over the Netherlands (March 7), finding the back of the net in the last minute of the first half. In the U20's final match of the tournament, Watt scored both of USA's goals in a 2-0 triumph against Sweden (March 9).
