Hear me out:
Franklin, Mruzik, Fischer, Louis, Beason, Miner, Rodriguez train in Anaheim with the Olympians
Hudson, Booth, Cresse, Babcock, Scott + DeLeye, Blyashov, Sigler, Jackson, Anyanwu, Martin, Reilly, Anderson, Gary go to NORCECA Final 6
Vander Wal, Harvey, Mullin, Flynn, Mauch + 2 OHs, 2 MBs, 1 S, 1 L, 1 extra pin from U19 roster go to U21 NORCECA champs
U19 roster is remaining players[/quote]
The first two could work, but US is using the same player pool available for 2025 competitions, and all these amazing players are too old.

Gotcha. Yeah, US is beginning to introduce younger players who are already in the NTDP pipeline to national teams, and while these NORCECA events are not high quality, it does help new players’ development, exposes them to hostile environments (venues, food, etc), and allows staff to assess them further.

Costa Rica up 2-1 over Cuba which I wouldn't have guessed. I rarely watch any of the lower matches but I swear, through all of these NORCECA tournaments, the really bad teams look so much better later in the tournament (not just given the competition). It's like they're learning from playing against better teams.
Anyway, I think Mexico/Canada could be really interesting. Haven't seen Mexico yet but I was mildly impressed with Canada in the game against the US. They did show flashes of really great play...

The pace of this game is very slow and it’s fairly close because neither team is very good.

After dropping the first set, Mexico came back to win the next two (25-7 in the second!). 4th set up next but needless to say USA’s match probably isn’t starting on time.
