(PRAGUE, CZ) I’m wrapping things up here in Prague – the rest of Team USA has scattered, either headed homeward or off on some well-deserved vacation time. Here’s the All-World team, which was announced at the post-final banquet:
- Jen Adams – AUS
- Sarah Albrecht – USA
- Dana Dobbie – CAN
- Amber Falcone – USA
- Sarah Forbes – AUS
- Kristen Kjellman – USA
- Sue McSolvin – AUS
- Stacey Morlang – AUS
- Lindsay Munday – USA
- Hannah Nielsen – AUS
- Gina Oliver – USA
- Laura Warren – WAL
Falcone was also named Best Defender.
The afterparty was pretty amazing – four floors of people drinking and dancing and teams singing and celebrating and wearing their team colors with pride. The American girls were treated like rock stars – a few members of the South Korean delegation took a moment to stop and bow to Sarah Albrecht. Golden girls, indeed. There was lots of goodwill. A few very nice and slightly confused people even congratulated me on how well I played in the final. Heh.
I’ve got one more story to post — about some NCAA players who’ve gone on to coach in Germany — but it may not come until I’m back home.
