St. Louis confident of winning the league
"We felt there was a very strong pool of players, obviously, and we wanted to move up and have a better pick for that,” Cooper said of the international draft. As a result "we will be like a world all-star team,'' he said. "Our prospects of winning the league go through the roof.”
That's assuming, as Cooper pointed out, that the international stars get signed, which is not a done deal by any stretch of the imagination. The WPS Initial International Draft marked the start of the process by which teams may begin a formal negotiation process with the players they selected.
