Rodman, Swanson, Wilson headline USWNT’s June roster

Emma Hayes’ first roster of the summer has been revealed with a familiar trio joining up together for the first time in close to two years.

Mallory Swanson, Trinity Rodman, and Sophia Wilson headlined Hayes’ 26-player roster for an upcoming pair of June friendlies against Brazil. The USWNT will face Brazil on June 6 and 9 in Sao Paulo and Fortaleza respectively. 

Rodman, Wilson, and Mallory Swanson will all team up together for the first time since the USWNT’s Olympic Gold Medal victory over Brazil in August 2024. It will be Swanson’s first senior call-up since October 2024 after she had been out of action due to the birth of her daughter in Fall 2025. 

The camp will feature no first time call-ups, but does bring a mix of youth and experience ahead of a crucial series against the No. 6-ranked team in the world. 

Manchester United’s Phallon Tullis-Joyce,  Seattle Reign’s Claudia Dickey, and Utah Royals’ Mandy McGlynn will all compete for minutes in between the posts. Tullis-Joyce’s season in England recently concluded with her registering 17 clean sheets in all competitions. 

Lindsey Heaps, Rose Lavelle, and Emily Fox have also been named to the roster, bringing several years of international experience to the mix.

“It’s fantastic for our team, both on and off the field, to have Trinity and our two soccer moms back on the same roster,” said Hayes. “However, we recognize the importance of preparing for World Cup qualifying and the need for the group to come together in that process. We need to build connections between players, and with limited time before qualifying, every minute counts. 

“This trip offers amazing opportunities for these players to experience Brazil, its culture, stadiums, and passionate fans, and especially playing the World Cup hosts,” Hayes added. “Few challenges in women’s international soccer compare to facing Brazil in Brazil, so we’re excited for the valuable lessons this experience will bring.” 

It will mark the first head-to-head showdown between the two countries since April 2025 and The USWNT’s firdt trip to Brazil since 2014.
