The CSA announced today the 23-man roster for a pre-Olympic qualying tournament training camp to be held next week in Florida.
Coach Tony Fonseca has called in a squad based mostly on this side of the Atlantic, and he will trim the final roster by three players ahead of the first Olympic qualification match against El Salvador on March 22.
Of the 23 players called, only three are currently with European sides as Fonseca undoubtedly had trouble getting Euro-based players released.
Notable absentees include Adam Straith, Randy Edwini-Bonsu, Roberto Stillo, Joseph Di Chiara and Ashtone Morgan.[PRBREAK][/PRBREAK]
