From College to the Pros - The US soccer ladder

Friday, July 07, 2006

Correction to yesterday's post...

It looks like four of the pros were not about to travel with the US U-20 team.

Forward Quavas Kirk, midfielder Dax McCarty and defenders Nathan Sturgis and Tim Ward were removed from the once 20-man roster.

Kirk and Sturgis were both recalled by the L.A. Galaxy after initially being released for the national team trip due to injuries at the club that required head coach Frank Yallop to use both players for upcoming matches. The Columbus Crew also requested Ward for their upcoming match against D.C. United this Saturday. McCarty was unable to make the trip after suffering an injury to his right groin.

So the team will have to make due with 16 players for the two match series. The games are two days apart so you've got to assume that most of these guys will have a chance to play against the Chanuks.
