DURHAM, N.C. – In a dream come true for Duke University junior Rebecca Quinn, the defender/midfielder was named to the Canada Women’s Soccer National Team Monday that will represent their country at the Olympics in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil Aug. 3-19.
Quinn, a native of Toronto, Canada, was one of 18 players selected Monday by the Canadian Olympic Committee (COC) in which is a mix of fresh faces and long-time members.
Canada Soccer clinched a berth in the Olympics back in February and will look to build off a bronze medal-winning result from the 2012 Olympics in London.
