DURHAM, N.C. – As the U.S. Under-20 Women's National Team continues its preparations for the 2016 FIFA U-20 Women's World Cup, Duke University freshman Taylor Racioppi along with 25 other standouts will convene April 1-8 in Lakewood Ranch, Fla., for a training camp.
The United States squad is coming off a successful trip to La Manga, Spain, where it played three U-23 opponents. Against Sweden, the team finished with a 1-1 draw, while defeating England (1-0) and taking down Norway (2-1).
Racioppi, who hails from Ocean Township, N.J., earned TopDrawerSoccer.com All-Freshman Best XI, NSCAA All-Regional and All-ACC Freshman accolades as a rookie with the Blue Devils in 2015. She notched a team-high 20 points to go along with seven goals and six assists, while also registering a team-best 86 shots. Racioppi's six assists ranked tied sixth and her seven goals are tied 13th on the Duke freshman record books. She led the squad with four game-winning goals.
In December, the U.S. earned its berth in the 2016 FIFA U-20 Women's World Cup by winning its semifinal match of the CONCACAF qualifying tournament against host Honduras and then defeating Canada for the regional title, 1-0. The World Cup will take place from Nov. 13 through Dec. 3 in Papua New Guinea.
The 16-team field for the tournament features Canada, Mexico, the USA, Papua New Guinea, New Zealand, Japan, Korea DPR, Korea Republic, Ghana, Nigeria, Brazil, Venezuela, France, Germany, Spain, and Sweden.
