The Rio Olympics are only two months away, and the USWNT is preparing by playing friendlies against Japan and South Africa. The team is currently in a camp in which coach, Jill Ellis, invited 25 players, including FC Kansas City’s Heather O’Reilly and Becky Sauerbrunn. Sauerbrunn played every minute of the 2015 FIFA Women’s World Cup and was named co-captain of the team this year. Therefore, she is a shoo-in for the Olympic roster. Right now O’Reilly is on the bubble, meaning she could or could not make the Olympics roster. Here is why she should make the Olympic team.
