Both the men's and women's national teams have added a pair of players to their rosters for upcoming friendlies against CONCACAF opponents.
The men, who'll face Costa Rica in Edmonton on Tuesday, added Nik Ledgerwood (the pride of Lethbridge!) and newcomer Daniel Haber (no relation to Marcus), a standout at Cornell who signed with Maccabi Haifa in Israel earlier this year.
Meanwhile, the women bolstered their lineup for Sunday's big "rematch" with the USA by adding defender Kylla Sjoman -- who has experience playing in England and Germany, and earned her first CanWNT cap last month -- and Danica Wu, an industrious midfielder who featured for Canada at least year's U20 Women's World Cup.

So, both squads have brought in one most-likely-depth player in their mid-to-late 20s, and taken a flyer on one early-20s up-and-comer. No harm there; it's never a bad thing to have depth -- especially for Canadian soccer teams.
