ATLANTA, Ga. – Radford women's soccer freshman Ary Oliver has been called up to the U.S. Under-20 Women's National Team training camp, to be held from October 22-30 at the University of Kansas Health System Training Center, the home of the National Women's Soccer League Kansas City Current.
The midfielder is one of just 10 collegiate players and 24 in total to be invited to the training camp. Oliver has started in all 13 matches and has logged a goal and two assists. She was named to the Big South Midseason Watch List earlier this season.
Prior to joining the Highlanders, Oliver was a standout at Woodbridge (Va.) High School. She also played at the club level with the Virginia Development Academy.
The U.S. Under-20 Women's National Team is made up of players born on or after Jan. 1, 2006. Outside of 10 collegiate players, the roster is made up of players from the NWSL, USL Super League, other international professional leagues, and youth club players.
The 2026 FIFA U-20 Women's World Cup will take place next year in Poland from Sept. 5-27. The USA is one of 12 nations to already qualify for the tournament, doing so at the 2025 Concacaf Women's U-20 Championship last June. The tournament will feature 24 countries.
