Her resume already sparkles, with selection to the ECNL U14-15 National Finals Best XI and recognition as one of the top standout defenders in the entire class. Cabral is a genuine anchor and one of the most complete young center backs in the country.

Decker was called up into the last squad at this age group proving that the selection committee has been impressed with her output. She heads to Mexico with valuable experience and a track record of encouraging performances at the club and international levels.   Sullivan Frericks (Tennessee SC) - Frericks is a silky smooth defensive midfielder that can pick out any forward pass and shows exceptional composure on the ball. She flies around on defense and reads her opponents very well coming up with a ton of well timed interceptions and ball winning tackles. Making this squad from a small town like Thompsons Station, Tennessee population around 7,500 is a testament to the work she's put in. Proving that great soccer players can come from anywhere.   Gillian Vega (PDA) - One of the smaller physical profiles in this squad Vega makes up for it with heart, tenacity and an elite skill set. She's a high octane outside back that is excellent in 1 v 1 situation as well as progressing the ball forward on the dribble. The PDA product has an excellent burst of speed and plays like a honey badger out there unfazed by any moment or opposition.   Nany Zuniga ([program_tooltip program_id='280776' first='Eagles' last='SC']) - The [program_tooltip program_id='280776' first='Eagles' last='SC'] product plays the game with real tenacity and physicality. Changes direction on the dribble with exceptional fluidity. She is a shifty dribbler and excellent at playing the ball in behind the opposition back line. She loves to dribble inside from her right back position and is extremely dangerous when she does almost becoming like another midfielder.   [player_tooltip player_id='335245' first='Stella' last='Fallis'] (San Diego Surf) - Not just another San Diego Surf product but 1 of 3 players on this squad coming from Carlsbad. She is a defensive midfield maestro whom even at this young age could probably teach a class on how to play the position. Her movement off the ball is scary good almost on the level of a professional soccer player. She demonstrates composure and skill on both ends. Her resume continues to build as she was named to the National Finals Best XI and a US Club soccer ID2 selection. She is a genuinely cerebral, two-way midfielder with a very bright future.   Morgan Douce (Ohio Premier) - From the tiny town of Radnor, Ohio Douce brings creativity to this stacked midfield. A second player from Ohio Premier on this roster. Douce is a repeat Talent ID and national team pool selection and has consistently earned recognition among some of the top midfielders in her class. She gets into some great offensive pockets and is incredible on the half turn. Loves playing through balls in behind the opposition back line for her strikers to run on to.   Andrea Lopes (PDA) - coming from the second most represented club of these players PDA Lopes is out of Kenilworth, New Jersey. A versatile, technically sound midfielder, Lopes brings quality and continuity to the middle of the park. Her repeated national team selections speaks to the trust this staff has placed in her.

[player_tooltip player_id='335242' first='Tali' last='Sherman'] (Beach FC) - One of many Southern California talents in this squad Sherman is a Long Beach, California native and Beach FC product. She is a two footed midfielder who is a threat to score. Reminds me of a female Frank Lampard as she is an attacking minded midfielder who has a nose for goal. This 4 nations tournament is the perfect proving ground for a player of her promise.   Nina Stanislaus (Philadelphia Ukranian Nationals) - our top ranked player in Pennsylvania and has also spent time with the Brazilian National Team Stanislaus may have a decision to make about which country she wants to represent moving forward. She has insane technical ability and the creativity to go along with it. Her hesitation move is like watching Jack Grealish in his prime. Very exciting young prospect out of Fort Washington, Pennsylvania.   Fifi Garcia (So Cal Blues) - The Huntington Beach native is one of the most athletic prospects I've ever evaluated. She can play anywhere along the front line or attacking midfield and flies around the field with and without the ball in a way that you just can't teach. Her combination of raw speed, relentless motor, and dynamism gives her genuine Trinity Rodman-esque potential. Garcia has the kind of explosive, game-breaking athleticism that translates all the way to the top of the sport.   [player_tooltip player_id='382324' first='Haylie' last='Jackson'] (San Diego Surf) - The last but definitely not least San Diego Surf product in this squad. Out of San Marcos, California I have had the pleasure of covering a handful of her games over the past 6 months live and evaluation hasn't changed: she is the bet dribbler I have seen in her age group. Her close control, change of direction, and ability to beat defenders 1 on 1 make her a constant nightmare to defend in the final third. A very willing a decisive passer as well Jackson is a genuinely special attacking talent.   Brooke Chavez (North Carolina Courage Academy) - of Wake Forest, North Carolina Chavez brings her goal threat from the North Carolina Courage Academy. A repeat national team pool forward, Chavez has established herself among the top young attackers on the east coast. She'll look to prove her finishing touch in Mexico.   Camelia McIntosh (VDA) - A truly explosive #9 who glides with the ball on the dribble. The Oakton, Virginia native out of the always competitive and successful Virginia Development Academy has the potential to climb as high as anyone on this roster. She combines elite speed with exceptional body control and ball skills along with uncanny finishing ability.   [player_tooltip player_id='338298' first='Shamia' last='Sanders'] ([program_tooltip program_id='342634' first='FC' last='Westlake']) - Sanders is a fierce, powerful center forward who plays with a rare blend of speed, strength, and skill. Her production at club level speaks for itself and she scored 4 goals in two games on the ID2 summer tour. She comes from a very talented soccer family and projects as an ideal modern day number 9.   Nila Sullivan (Athletic Club Florida) - Rounding out the forward group Sullivan is from an Athletic Club Florida program that is on the rise. She has a wand of a left foot and is versatile enough to drop into midfield to dictate play. You might find her on the wing or through the middle with this group. She has also spent time with the Turkey national team at youth level.
