European-based stars won't be present when the United States women's national team holds its first training camp since March, but Brazilian-born Catarina Macario's place on the field marks an important step in the emerging star's journey to represent her adopted country.
The national team will hold a 10-day camp in the Denver area beginning on Oct. 18. The U.S. has not gathered as a team since the SheBelieves Cup in March. The U.S. defeated England, Japan and Spain to win that tournament, which was completed days before the sports world shut down in response to the coronavirus pandemic.
