"We are learning and improving from session to session," said Head Coach Todd Thornley. "The attitudes have been great and we will continue to get better."

Off the field the team gathered Saturday night to watch the USA vs Belgium match as a group.

It has been an intense buildup for this team as they have to formulate into a cohesive team quickly. Game plans are fluid because they will play four 40-minute games in the space of two days.
