Goalkeepers

Adrianna French, Ashlyn Harris, Alyssa Naeher

Defenders

Abby Dahlkemper, Crystal Dunn, Ali Krieger, Kelley O’Hara, Becky Sauerbrunn, Emily Sonnett

Midfielders

Julie Ertz, Lindsey Horan, Rose Lavelle, Samantha Mewis, Andi Sullivan

Forwards

As mentioned, two players on the team sheet were not named to the World Cup squad.
