US Women's National Team head coach Emma Hayes has named an expansive preliminary roster ahead of upcoming international fixtures. The roster includes a wide pool of players, with Hayes opting to call up nearly all eligible athletes for evaluation.
The announcement comes as the team prepares for a new cycle under Hayes, who took charge earlier this year. The preliminary list allows the coaching staff to assess a large group before finalizing the squad for competitive matches.
Defender Tara Rudd, seen in action against Argentina on March 1, 2026, at GEODIS Park in Nashville, is among the players included in the preliminary selection.
