Naomi Girma is going to play at home in Northern California with the U.S. team this month for the first time since a send-off game for the 2023 Women’s World Cup. Coach Emma Hayes announced Wednesday that Girma will be on the roster when the U.S. plays the first of three matches against Japan on April 11 at San Jose’s Pay Pal Park. Girma was born in San Jose and played at nearby Stanford. Her Stanford teammate, Sophia Wilson, was named to her first roster in 15 months after taking last year off for the birth of her daughter.
