U.S. soccer star Alex Morgan said she's disappointed that she was not included in the roster of players who will compete in the 2024 Olympics.
The United States Women's National Soccer Team has unveiled its roster of players tapped to compete at the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris this summer. To the surprise of many fans, the list does not include Alex Morgan, a longtime member of the U.S. national team whose performance on the field over more than a decade has earned her global celebrity in addition to athletic accolades.
Only eight are returning to the team from the 2020 Olympic Games in Tokyo: goalkeeper Alyssa Naeher; defenders Tierna Davidson, Casey Krueger and Emily Sonnett; midfielders Lindsey Horan, Rose Lavelle and Catarina Macario; and forward Crystal Dunn. Players selected for this Olympic team are younger, on average, than in previous years, according to the U.S. Soccer Federation. The 18-person roster has an average age of 26.8, the youngest group tapped for the U.S.
