The U.S. Under-23 Women’s National Team will come together in Charlottesville, Va. for a training camp running from May 1-7. As the NWSL season has started, the roster consists entirely of collegiate players, including nine who have represented the USA at an age group FIFA Women’s World Cup.

Among the 26 players called up by coach Janet Rayfield, two players – goalkeeper Jane Campbell and midfielder Rose Lavelle – have previous experience training with the full U.S. Women’s National Team.

The U-23s are coming off a trip to Croatia in early March where a team that was a mixture of NWSL and college players defeated the Slovenia Women’s National Team 3-0, tied the Poland U-19 WNT 0-0 and defeated the France National “B” Team 2-0. Goal scorers from that trip on the Charlottesville roster are Christina Gibbons from Duke and Andi Sullivan from Stanford.
