32-Year-Old LaBonta Makes USWNT Debut Alongside Rising Star Dickey
After years of hard work and dedication, 32-year-old Lo’eau LaBonta has finally earned her chance to represent the United States Women’s National Team (USWNT). LaBonta, who plays as a midfielder for Kansas City NWSL, has been a standout player in the league for several years, but has never received a call-up to the national team. That all changed recently when USWNT head coach Vlatko Andonovski selected her for the upcoming matches. Alongside LaBonta, 23-year-old goalkeeper Casey Murphy also received her first call-up to the USWNT. The duo represents a mix of youth and experience, with LaBonta offering veteran leadership and Murphy bringing a fresh perspective to the team. There is no age discrimination here, as Andonovski is giving both young and experienced players a chance to prove themselves and earn a spot on the national team roster. LaBonta and Murphy will have the opportunity to showcase their skills and compete with the best players in the country, as they aim to make a lasting impression and secure their places on the USWNT. Their journey is a testament to the power of perseverance and hard work, and serves as an inspiration to players of all ages who dream of representing their country at the highest level of competition.
