Highland Park’s Zoe Redei has been named to the U.S. U-17 Women’s National Team.
Redei, a forward for Eclipse Select Soccer Club, is one of 19 players on the team (a 20th will be added). So far, she is the lone representative from Illinois. The group will compete in the 2013 CONCACAF U-17 Women’s Championship from Oct. 30-Nov. 9 in Montego Bay, Jamaica. The U-17 team will be trying to earn a spot in the 2014 FIFA U-17 Women’s World Cup, which runs March 15-April 5 in Costa Rica.
Redei, 15, plays for Eclipse Select’s U-16 Elite Clubs National League team. She helped the U-15 ECNL team win a national championship in mid-July, then scored two goals to help Eclipse Select to a title at the U-15 U.S. Youth Soccer National Championships in late July.
