Owen Wolff - Called up to youth national team Wolff has been called up to the U.S. Youth National Team for the upcoming u-20 World Cup in Argentina, meaning he'll miss up to a month of MLS action for the tournament.

Impact Wolff has become a regular starter for Austin in 2023, tallying one goal and two assists from nine MLS appearances (seven starts) in midfield, but he's now set to miss at least the next five games while he's with the Youth National Team. Now that Julio Cascante is fit again, Alexander Ring can slide back up and replace Wolff in midfield.
