San Jose Earthquakes News Release


Former Earthquakes Academy goalkeeper JT Marcinkowski was among 21 players named to the U.S. Under-20 Men's National Team roster by head coach Tab Ramos for the upcoming 2016 U-20 Men's NTC Invitational. The tournament is set to take place from June 26-July 4 in Carson, California.

Marcinkowski was a standout player for the Earthquakes Academy before heading to Georgetown University, where he earned the Freshman of the Year Award and was named to the All-Freshman Team and First Team All-Big East. In addition to his time with the Quakes Academy, Marcinkowski is also a current member of Burlingame Dragons FC, the Earthquakes U-23 PDL club.

The USA will face Costa Rica on June 29 at 6 p.m. PT, Panama on July 1 at 6 p.m. PT and finish up against Japan on July 3 at 3 p.m. PT.

The second annual U-20 Men's tournament held at the U.S. Soccer National Training Center in Carson will be the second tournament of 2016 for Ramos and the U-20s as the USA recently competed in the 2016 Dallas Cup, defeating CF Monterrey Rayados (1-0), falling to Fulham FC (1-2) and drawing TSG 1899 Hoffenheim (3-3), with forwards Jeremy Ebobisse, Victor Mansaray and Emmanuel Sabbi and defender Aaron Herrera tallying for the USA.

The USA last competed in the inaugural NTC Invitational in 2014, drawing Australia 0-0 in the title match, and subsequently winning the tournament as the USA's goal differential was better than Australia's.

All six matches of the 2016 tournament will be streamed on ussoccer.com.
