[FONT=georgia,palatino]The U.S. WNT had its last full training in Glasgow today, and the stay has been excellent. After today's training, the players took a picture with the volunteers at the training ground who have all been so nice and helpful during the USA's stay in Scotland. Before the photo, each U.S. player went from volunteer to volunteer, shaking everyone's hand and thanking each person for his or her work.

Thanks very much, Glasgow volunteers!
The media attention has not been huge so far with the team situated in Glasgow, but it's growing, and several players did interviews today in advance of the match against Colombia.

U.S. midfielder Shannon Boxx has been ruled out of the Colombia match due to a hamstring injury suffered against France. The U.S. coaching staff is being cautious with the three-time Olympian, and she is progressing well. Boxx is listed as day-to-day.

Megan Rapinoe was looking stylish for her media session. Her glasses need a Twitter account.
The U.S. team also had its pre-game meeting tonight to talk about Colombia, and all the players are excited to hit the pitch again on Saturday, where a win would all but clinch a berth to the quarterfinals.
