US National Team Camp – Who Are These People?

We have finally emerged from the cave. Now that we are graced with rosters from the monthly national camps—like the one that concluded today—this has given birth to a new phenomenon wherein one looks at the roster, recognizes 90% of the people, but then also says, “……Her? What is a…that?”

So, let this be a place to keep track of which characters made a cameo in which of the monthly episodes; what international assignments resulted from those camps; applicable placements in senior (S), junior (J), and physical abilities (PA) standings; junior/senior status; results dossiers; most recent D-scores; and anything else important to know about these friends both familiar and foreign.

  1. I guess the rumour is true and Emily Schild will be deferring going to UGA until January 2018 so she can try for Worlds.

  2. Why doesn’t Sydney Johnson Scharpf get invited to these training camps?

  3. What about Laney Madsen? Is she still trying for Elite? She is supposed to be amazing on floor, but it seems like every year there isn’t any word about her. Also what about the other Texas Dreams girls? I wish we could see the list of qualifiers to classics
