Houston Dash midfielder Morgan Brian and goalkeeper Jane Campbell were selected by U.S. Women’s National Team head coach Jill Ellis for the 23-player roster prior to the 2017 SheBelieves Cup, U.S. Soccer announced today.
Additionally, midfielder Carli Lloyd, currently with Manchester City and scheduled to return to Houston in June, was also selected by Ellis for the tournament which, for the second consecutive year, will feature four of the world’s top-five ranked teams in the USA (1), Germany (2), France (3) and England (5).
Brian has earned 63 caps with the USWNT and won the Golden Ball as the most outstanding player at the CONCACAF Women’s Olympic Qualifying Championship last February. The 23-year-old midfielder started in 13 games for the Dash last year.
Campbell was selected with the No. 15 overall pick in the 2017 NWSL College Draft in January. The Stanford product finished her collegiate career with 35 shutouts, tied for the most in program history, and 7,431 minutes defending the Cardinal goal with 210 saves. The goalkeeper earned her first call-up with the senior team at age 17, becoming the youngest goalkeeper ever called into a full U.S. national team camp.
Join Morgan and Jane at BBVA Compass Stadium this spring with a Dash Season Membership for the 2017 NWSL season. Memberships are now available and start at just $174. Season memberships include merchandise discounts, a Meet the Team night and access to the Orange Rewards loyalty program.
