Fast girls sometimes pull their hamstrings, and that's not goodForward Alex Morgan, the youngest player in WNT Training Camp at age 20, has left camp after
suffering a hamstring injury in training on Wednesday. One of the heroes of the USA's title run at

Today was the second day off from training during this camp and it came at a good time, with more
than a few players starting to feel the strain on their legs of about nine hard days of practices
