Rapinoe, Lavelle, Quinn among Reign players heading to Tokyo

A batch of OL Reign players will be heading to Tokyo for the Summer Olympics. On Wednesday morning, Megan Rapinoe was named as one of five forwards on the U.S. women’s national team roster, while Rose Lavelle occupies one of the midfield spots. Meanwhile, Quinn will join the Canadians in Tokyo, and late last week Nicole Momiki was named to Japan’s final roster.

The United States is looking to make history as the first team to win a World Cup title and Olympic gold in back-to-back competitions. Meanwhile, Canada — who finished in third place in Rio in 2016 — are looking to upgrade their medal status.
