Oh sorry,

I had missed where you had said she is going to Stanford. I wanted to know if you meant the youth Olympic team or the adult team. I had assumed you were referring to the adult team, due to you using the word "full", but I wasnt quite sure. Reason being, I wanted to catch her play, so that I knew which team to look for.

Anyway, Im happy for her, and on behalf of all Americans, and those who enjoy the game of soccer, we are proud and will be cheering for her.
