The United States Women's National Soccer Team emerged victorious at the 2015 Women's World Cup, and head coach Jill Ellis has been rewarded for her side's achievement.
According to the Washington Post's Steven Goff, Ellis and the United States Soccer Federation have agreed to terms on a new deal after declining to exercise an option that could have extended her previous contract by "up to five additional years."
Terms of the deal won't be disclosed until next year, but according to Goff, "Ellis is expected to guide the squad through the 2019 World Cup in France and perhaps the 2020 Olympics in Tokyo.
