A trio of players earning national recognition highlight the roster of the 2009 NSCAA/adidas Girls Youth All-America Team.

Hayley Brock (Stars of Mass/Boston, Mass.), Kealia Ohai (Utah Avalanche/Draper, Utah) and Mollie Pathman (Triangle FC/Durham, N.C.) are on the squad and each has claimed a 2009 National Player of the Year Award. Brock earned the honor at the youth level, while Ohai was recognized as the High School National Player of the Year. Pathman was named the NSCAA's High School Scholar Athlete of the Year and completed a hat trick by earning a spot on the NSCAA's Youth and High School All-America teams and the High School Scholar All-America Team. A total of 16 players earned Youth All-America recognition for the second time.

The All-America selections were recognized at the annual All-America Luncheon, held Jan. 16 in Philadelphia, Pa.,  as part of the 2010 NSCAA Convention.
