    The U.S. roster includes a highly talented group of veteran Olympians, with Danielle Scott-Arruda, Heather Bown, Logan Tom, Nancy Metcalf, Lindsey Berg, Cynthia Barboza and Stacey Sykora. Young guns such as Kristin Richards, Alexis Crimes and Jordan Larson will also make the trip. The Americans finished second in 2007 and were runners-up in the five editions that preceded their threepeat in 2001, 2003 and 2005.

    ı think it is better ıdea to have child early than after 30. neslihan also had a prenancy while she was young and now she came back as stronger whereas natali who had a pregnancy after she was 30 years old cannot play as much as she could...
