A-Rod Represents
USC junior Amy Rodriguez will miss a few classes to start this semester. Hopefully her professors will understand. Actually, as an international relations major, maybe she should be getting extra credit.
Rodriguez is currently in Guangzhou, China, where she scored two goals and picked up an assist against Canada in the Four Nations Tournament. It was the first time she hit the back of the net for the U.S. women's national soccer team. It was also her first start (sixth cap overall), and she played the full 90 minutes. Looks like Coach Ali's emphasis on fitness is paying off.
Earlier this week, Rodriguez was named the UMBRO National Player of the Year for her performance in USC's NCAA championship season.
Images of Rodriguez playing against Canada are available from ISI Photos. The U.S. won that match, 4-0 and will face Finland on Jan. 18 and China on Jan. 20.
