Whitney Engen called up for Japan friendlies

USA head coach Jill Ellis has named her 25-player roster for the United States' upcoming friendlies against Japan on June 2 and June 5.

Among her callups is center back Whitney Engen, who will miss the Breakers' away game against the Western New York Flash in order to attend camp starting May 27.

Engen has been good for the Breakers defense, helping keep them organized even in the face of their current five-game losing streak. With her gone, head coach Matt Beard may pull Julie King back in from the right wing to pair with Kassey Kallman, or may even call upon Rachel Wood to fill in.
