Erica Skroski U-23 Team

[rudad02]

Erica has been named to the US National Women's Soccer U-23 Team. Terrific honor for Erica & RU Soccer. Certainly a tremendous accomplishment & well deserved. IMO Erica was probably one of the two most completely accomplished players, if not the most, on an excellent team of very talented players.

In addition, Erica, Brianne Reed, & Haley Katkowski are among 145 players in the pool for tomorrows Women's Professional Soccer League draft, with 4 rounds starting at 10am.

Brianne Red & Erica Skroski drafted in WMLS. Brianne no.18 by KC, the defending champs. late in the 2nd round. Erica no 23 by Sky Blue, here in NJ, early in the 3rd round. Forty were drafted out of a pool of one forty five. Congrats & all the best to these outstanding soccer players & outstanding young ladies.

Congrats to Brianne and Erica. A little surprised they still do U teams up to age 23. After college should they all just be competing for the National team. Would seem to make more sense to just have a B Team regardless of age to keep developing talent.

Does Reed have good shot at National Team?

Does Reed have good shot at National Team?

If you mean the U-23 national team, no. Skroski was only RU player selected. I suspect Reed's shot at the national team of Carli Lloyd, et al, would depend on her play at the professional level.

Good point RE professional play. Wonder if Reed is aged out of U-23. Both she and Skroski had great years, but I thought Reed was more consistent in her last two years. Either way, both are deserving of the higher accolades and teams.

Reed wasn't aged out of U-23. She is excellent, very physical. However, I believe Skroski was the best all around & I saw her as the most consistent.
