U.S. U-23 men’s national team head coach Caleb Porter has added forward Terrence Boyd and midfielder Kelyn Rowe to the team's roster for a nine-day training camp, set to run from Dec. 15-23 in Lakewood Ranch, Fla.
Rowe, 20, is a veteran of the U-20 side who will be making debut in the U-23 age group. The UCLA sophomore scored six goals and added 10 assists this season, en route to being named Pac-12 Player of the Year.
Boyd, 20, is a member of Borussia Dortmund, where he's been having a standout season for the club's U-23 side. His strong play earned him a place on the bench with the first-team for a match in October, but he is yet to make his Bundesliga debut.
The training camp will help Porter evaluate the team's roster ahead of Olympic qualifying, which is set to take place in March at LP Field in Nashville.
