Casey Short gets called in to USWNT

The defender who was featured in earlier games of this Victory Tour is back to spell the overworked and some injured more regular players of the USWNT in this the last game of Head Coach Jill Ellis and the Tour. Sunday Oct. 6 at 1p.m. CT on ESPN you may see her from Soilder Field as she like Andi Sullivan have been placed on the roster as relief valves for those with way too many minutes between the NWSL and World Cup. Casey is far from rusty as she has not just 29 caps but also has strated all but one of her Red Stars 24 games as they took 2nd in the regular season. She did play in both Victory tour games and we just posted some images from Philly on the Facebook page of Soccer Long Island Magazine, a that time she was brought in for just this very same reason.Short joins many teammates for this match, GK Alyssa Naeher, D Tierna Davidson, M's Morgan Brian & Julie Ertz as their team is tops with players on this squad.
