Does anyone know when this team is traveling? How many games will the active college players miss? Seems like a big loss for Harvard in particular to lose Carrington.
Leave Saturday for 10 days
First game is today at 12:30 PST
Are the results posted anywhere outside having to log into the website?

26-4 over Peru. Carrington game MVP.
Brazil wins against USA in a shootout - sudden death. We played most of 4Q man down after a brutality call - and only gave up one goal while scoring two in that time. Gutty.
The reffing was… interesting.
I’m sure we’ll make the adjustments.
I saw on Instagram that Brazil won and was baffled. Now it all makes sense. Who got the brutality?
Broadcast in Portuguese, so not sure! But 5m followed by 4 minute man down told me “brutality.”
4Q
Rafael Suarez-Abraham wasn’t listed as a member of the U19 Pan American team by USA water polo but he’s shown on the 6-8 scorecard for today’s loss against Brazil. Suarez-Abraham is still in high school but he started on the U18 team that won the silver medal at last summer’s world championships and may have the highest ceiling of any American goalie since Adrian Weinberg. If he’s on the U19 team, I don’t know why he didn’t play at least part of the game againt Brazil..
Jackson Shaw. The result was a 5m for Brazil, ejection for Shaw (he’s out for the next game too) and a man down for 4 minutes in the 4th for Team USA. It was a terrible situation, but the team handled it well.
I believe the US boys team only has one goalie at the tournament.
Why? What happened to other goalies
Though unrelated to the main issue, one of my preferred subjects is 6–8 scoring +/-. A thoughtful observer noted that a brutality call producing such a harsh result carries no matching penalty in 6–8 scoring. That seems reasonable..
.. Does 6-8 have a handle on WPEX?
Thank you for DM’ing the handle : @6-8Sports
It is listed as an exclusion in 6-8, which would be -1. But that seems like not enough of a negative considering everything that comes with a brutality. I may be missing something but that seems to be the most negative thing you can do to hurt your own team in a game and should carry more weight, IMO. The next 4 minutes Brazil had a 3-2 lead, one of those being the penalty shot. I am assuming they were down a man for 4 minutes but I am not certain.
Luke Harris and Harper Gardner were the rostered goalies per USA polo announcements. Both studs. We’d be fine with either. I’ve seen Luke in the stats and the highlights so it’s possible Harper didn’t make the trip.
I heard Harper Gardner dropped out at the last minute. Don’t know the reason. Rafeal Suarez needed a Visa–not sure if he can get it in time. Ellis Culleton had an issue because he turned 18 the same week and needed an adult Visa.
