Boyds, Md. (January 4, 2019) – Washington Spirit midfielder Rose Lavelle and forward Mallory Pugh have been selected for the U.S. Women’s National Team’s 26-player roster for January training camp.
The first U.S. WNT training camp of 2019 will be held in Portugal, and will be followed by the USA’s first two matches of the year, against France on Jan. 19 (2:30 p.m. ET on FS1) and against Spain on Jan. 22 (2:30 p.m. ET on ESPN2 & UDN).
