[U.S. UNDER-20 MEN] Eight foreign-based players -- including three from Mexican club Santos -- and two MLS players -- 2010 No. 1 SuperDraft pick Omar Salgado (Vancouver) and Victor Pineda (Chicago) -- were among the 26 players Tab Ramos named to the U.S. under-20 national team training camp Feb. 20-March 1 in Clermont, Fla.

Four players are based at clubs in Mexico -- Daniel Cuevas, Jesus Guzman and Benji Joya at Santos and Juan Pablo Ocegueda with Tigres -- and one each in Norway, Germany, Poland and Serbia.
