| The USASA is the United States Amateur Soccer Association. Paul Athanasiadis, Mike Gorenberg, and Manny Lopes coach the Massachusetts Women Select Team, which is representing the East at the US Soccer Festival. The team operates under the Massachusetts State Soccer Association, which is better known as MASS Soccer. | |||||||
| Spirit goalkeeper Ashley Phillips was originally on the roster for the Massachusetts Women State Select Team, but on July 12 she was selected to play for the U16 National Team, which is also playing at the US Soccer Festival. US National teams are organized by the United States Soccer Federation. Coincidentally, the first tournament game for the Massachusetts and U16 National Team was on Monday, July 29 at 6PM when they played each other with Ashley in goal for the US! Unfortunately, Ashley will miss playing for Spirit at the San Diego Surf Cup on Saturday due to her National Team commitment, but will be joining the team for the games on Sunday and Monday. | |||||||
