The U.S. Under-20 Women’s National Team cruised to a Concacaf Championship over the weekend.

In seven games in the Dominican Republic, the team comprised mainly of college players outscored opponents 49-0.

Playing seven games in 14 days at a high level is a challenge, even with the depth and quality advantage.

The conversation will be much different in August, as the United States looks to win the first Under-20 World Cup since 2012, when a slew of current full national teamers won it in Japan.

Here are some of the big takeaways from the team’s two weeks in the DR:
