Freshman forward Savannah Jordan passes the ball during Florida’s 2-0 victory against Texas A&M on Oct. 27 at James G. Pressly Stadium.

Savannah Jordan is continuing her dominance off the college pitch.

The UF freshman from Fayetteville, Ga., was selected to be part of the 20-person team to represent the U.S. in the CONCACAF Women’s Under-20 World Cup qualifying play in December.

Jordan, who led Florida with 22 goals last season, scored two goals in as many games while playing in George Town, Cayman Islands, with the national team. She notched her first goal in the 81st minute of the United States’ 6-0 rout of Costa Rica on Thursday.

Jordan opened the scoring against Jamaica on Saturday with a goal in the 31st minute of her team’s 3-0 win at the Truman Bodden Sports Complex.

The U.S. plays Guatemala tonight at 7:30 but has already secured a spot in the semifinals by winning its first two matches in the group stage.

Jordan finished her first season as the first freshman to become the Southeastern Conference offensive player of the year. She was also named to the second-team All-American, first team All-South Region and first team All-SEC teams.
