PISCATAWAY, N.J. - For the second straight year, Rutgers field hockey goalkeeper Gianna
Glatz secured a spot on U.S. U-21 Women's National Team. The team was announced today following
three days of training at Spooky Nook Sports in Lancaster, Pa.

Glatz was initially selected to the team last January, her participation in two training camps over that
winter and the 2018 Young Women's National Championship. She participated in the team's
international tour to Germany last April.

The squad will begin training starting next month in Chula Vista, Calif. from February 20 to 24. Their
second training camp will take place alongside the other women's Junior National Teams from March
27 to 29 in Chapel Hill and Durham, N.C. These training camps will be part of the team's year-long
preparations for the Junior Pan American Championship that will take place from November 30 to
December 13 in Santiago, Chile.

Glatz was named First Team All-Big Ten, First Team All-Region and was a Third Team All-American.
She recorded nine wins as the starting goalkeeper with a 1.49 goals-against-average and a .740 save
percentage on 71 saves and earned a Big Ten Defensive Player of the Week honor.
