Hope for keeper as charges dismissed

The charges of domestic assault against Women's National Team keeper Hope Solo near Seattle were dismissed when the alleged victims, a nephew who is 6'-9" and a half sister, refused to cooperate with prosecutors. However, prosecutors say the two were not served with subpoenas and there was not adequate time to notify them because of the New Year's holiday.  The prosecutor's office says it will appeal, so we may not have heard the last of the case.

Former U.S. star Julie Foudy writes that the team will welcome the five month run-up to the world Cup without the distraction of criminal charges against the starting goalie.
