COMMERCE CITY, Colo. - Colorado Rapids 2 goalkeeper Zackory Campagnolo and forward Colton Swan have been called up to the U.S. U-18 Men's National Team for the upcoming UEFA Friendship Cup, U.S. Soccer announced today. The pair will join the national team from May 28 through June 11 in Nyon, Switzerland, under Head Coach Marlon LeBlanc.

The tournament will be conducted in a two-group format with all participating teams guaranteed four matches, which include three group stage games, and a crossover fixture based on the final group standings.

All matches will be streamed live on **UEFA.tv** or at **UEFA's official YouTube channel**.

This will be Campagnolo's third call up to the U-18 side, most recently joining the team for a set of international friendlies in Spain where he recorded his first minutes with the team in matches against Norway and Morocco.

Campagnolo's national team experience extends to the country's U-15, U-16, U-17 and U-19 sides. The goalkeeper made his first official national team debut with the U-15s in 2022 at the Torneo Delle Nazioni in Italy, playing in three matches against Slovenia, Italy and Portugal.

The U-18 roster inclusion will mark the first international call up of Swan's career. A native of Ann Arbor, Michigan, Swan joined the Rapids Academy from Michigan Jaguars FC ahead of the 2023-24 MLS NEXT season. The forward competed with the club's U-17 team and helped lead the team to a spot in the 2023-24 MLS NEXT Cup after finishing as the runner-up in MLS NEXT Pro Pathway Western Conference. He also competed with Colorado Rapids 2 in the 2024 MLS NEXT Pro season, recording two goals and one assist in 15 appearances.
