Utahns Selected for US Youth Soccer's Interregional Event

Top national talent will converge on Coral Springs, Florida for the US Youth Soccer Olympic Development Program (US Youth Soccer ODP) Girls Thanksgiving Interregional. Continuing its tradition of elite play, competition and player development, youth from the nation's elite player identification and development program, US Youth Soccer ODP, will train and compete in front of US Soccer National Team Staff and leading collegiate coaches to maximize their exposure.

The spotlight this November will be on the Region IV ODP Girls in the 1989, 1990, 1991, and 1992 age groups, including the US U16 National Team. "This is an incredible honor for these young women. There is little doubt that their accomplishments can be credited to the countless hours of hard work each of them dedicate to the game of soccer; and equally important, the tremendous support of family, teammates, and accomplished coaches in both their Club and ODP environments," said State Technical Director Greg Maas.

Utah Youth Soccer would like to congratulate the following players who were selected to participate with US Youth Soccer Region IV ODP:

'89 Region IV Team - Jessie Baddley, Hailee DeYoung, Megan Ohai, and Elli Reed; '90 Region IV Team - Nikisha Fernandes, Lindsi Lisonbee, McKinzie Olsen, Chandra Salmon, Roxanne Tebbs, and Kierstin Wood; '91 Region IV Team - Cloee Colohan; and the '92 Region IV Team - Kealia Ohai.
