New Articles About Pilots

For those of you looking for a Pilot fix after the big weekend...

Here's an article from Soccer America (I linked the PDF so you can avoid the registration... booyah!) about the Rapinoe's. Ironic considering Rachael's injury, but it's still a good read and we still don't know what her condition yet is. (Fingers crossed!)

And here's an article from the O about Charney Burk... nice to hear the story about how she ended up here instead of USC:

And remember, you can see all of the media links on the official website - loving this new feature:

I don't want anyone to reveal any confidential information but is there any public news regarding Rachael. I am of course, very concerned.

Auto,

Generally the University is pretty good about providing updates when the player allows them to. I know that last year we found out within a few days the severity of both Megan and Rachel's injuries.

I feel you on this one, Auto Pilot, but rules are very strict about medical stuff and it's doubtful that they are going to do a release like "Rachael is OK" or "Rachael is not OK". They may do one if she is out for the year, but let's just keep our fingers crossed that we won't find out that way. Chances are you'll have to wait for the next regular weekly release or game preview and look for a bullet point on it.

Thanks guys. I appreciate you taking time to explain the protocal.
