Becky Sauerbrunn, 3 teens among USWNT call-ups for Colombia games

The squad includes center back Becky Sauerbrunn, who missed the World Cup with a foot injury, and Portland Thorns teammate Sophia Smith, whose miss in the fifth round of a shootout against Sweden contributed to round-of-16 elimination in Melbourne, Australia.

From the World Cup: What fuels Sophia Smith, the USWNT’s ruthless rising star? ‘I have to win.’

Smith, a 23-year-old forward, missed last month’s U.S. camp with a knee injury. Since her recovery, Sauerbrunn, 38, has started four matches for the Thorns.

Joining them at U.S. camp are teens Alyssa Thompson, Jaedyn Shaw and Olivia Moultrie.
