Manya's Musing From Brazil (Part 1 of 2, or 3 if she skips a nap)

May 25, 2004

U.S. Under-21 forward Manya Makoski, who debuted on ussoccer.com with her thoughts and observations from China last March, checks in from Brazil where the U-21s are currently in the midst of a four-game tour as part of their preparation for the 2004 Nordic Cup in Iceland at the end of July. Makoski, a rising junior at Arizona State, was a member of the USA’s 2002 Under-19 World Championship Team. The 5-foot-3 forward out of Trumbull, Conn., shares her musings on the matches, the wacky world of Brazil, power naps, the two degrees of separation from Usher and substandard glass doors in South America.
