U.S. women announce three matches vs. South Korea

Tue 7th, October 2008

Chicago, IL (Sports Network) - The gold-medal winning United States womens national team announced Tuesday it will continue its "Achieve Your Gold Tour" in November with three matches against South Korea.

The tour, which is taking the Olympic champions across the United States to celebrate their historic run to the top of the podium in China, will resume on Nov. 1 at the University of Richmond Stadium in Richmond, Va. Kickoff is at 6 p.m. (ET).

The USA will travel from Virginia to Cincinnati, Ohio, for a match on Nov. 5 at Paul Brown Stadium. Kickoff is 7:30 p.m. (ET). The three-game set against the Koreans will conclude on Nov. 8 at Raymond James Stadium in Tampa, Fla., with kickoff at 7 p.m. (ET).

Fifteen of the 18 players from the Olympic roster will travel on the tour, and an additional four players have been added.

The United States' college players - Amy Rodriguez (USC), Tobin Heath (UNC) and Lauren Cheney (UCLA) - will not be playing due to commitments to their college seasons.

Olympic alternates Briana Scurry and midfielder Kacey White were added to the roster for the entire "Achieve Your Gold Tour," and they will now be joined by two members of the 2007 FIFA Women's World Cup Team in defenders Tina Ellertson and Marian Dalmy, who have come back from pregnancy and injury, respectively.

The U.S. heads into these three games against South Korea with a 29-1-1 record in 2008, having already set the mark for most wins in calendar year. The U.S. has not lost a domestic match since Nov. 2006. In fact, the U.S. women have lost just five domestic matches this decade, three coming in 2000.

Despite two trips to South Korea in the past three years for the Peace Queen Cup, the U.S. women have not faced the South Koreans since 1999, a 5-0 win in Columbus, Ohio. The U.S. has played South Korea just three times, winning all three matches.

Where the players come to play and STAY.
