Goalkeeper Hope Solo has been suspended from the U. Jim Lee Hunt Jersey .S. womens national team for 30 days and wont participate in matches next month in Europe. U.S. Soccer did not specify the reason for the suspension, announced Wednesday night. It comes after the arrest of her husband, former Seattle Seahawks tight end Jerramy Stevens, earlier this week on suspicion of driving under the influence. Solo was in the car when Stevens was pulled over in Manhattan Beach, California, about 1:30 a.m. Monday for driving without headlights. Solo was not arrested or detained. It is the latest off-field trouble for Solo. Earlier this month, a judge dismissed two misdemeanour counts of domestic violence against her. The 33-year-old goalkeeper was in Southern California for training camp with the U.S. national team, which is preparing to play in the World Cup starting in June. During our current National Team camp, Hope made a poor decision that has resulted in a negative impact on U.S. Soccer and her teammates, coach Jill Ellis said in a statement. We feel at this time it is best for her to step away from the team. Solo, who has won two Olympic gold medals with the U.S. team, was released from camp. I accept and respect the Federations decision, and more importantly, I apologize for disappointing my teammates, coaches and the Federation who have always supported me, Solo said in a statement emailed to The Associated Press on Wednesday night. I think its best for me to take a break, decompress from the stress of the last several months, and come back mentally and physically ready to positively contribute to the team. The domestic violence charges stemmed from an altercation with her half-sister and 17-year-old nephew at a party in Washington last June. Solo had pleaded not guilty in that case, and she continued to play for the U.S. team and with her National Womens Soccer League team, the Seattle Reign, while awaiting trial. Solo married Stevens in 2012. He was arrested just before their wedding for investigation of assault after a disturbance involving Solo, but he was not charged. Her last appearance with the national team was in December, when she started in a scoreless draw against Brazil in the championship game of the 2014 International Tournament of Brasilia. Last September in an exhibition victory over Mexico, Solo logged her 72nd shutout, passing Briana Scurry (1994-2008) on national teams career list. The suspension comes at a critical time for the U.S. team. Following the exhibition matches in February, the U.S. team will play in the Algarve Cup in March. The team will open World Cup play on June 8 against Australia in Winnipeg, Manitoba. An expanded field of 24 teams will compete in the World Cup, which will be played in six Canadian cities. The United States is in Group D, which also includes Sweden and Nigeria. The U.S. women, currently ranked No. 2 in the world behind Germany, are seeking their third World Cup title bur first since 1991. Solo will be eligible for reinstatement after the monthlong suspension, pending review and approval by U.S. Soccer and Ellis. J. D. Smith Jersey . - The Detroit Lions have placed tight end Brandon Pettigrew on injured reserve, ending his season. Matt Light Jersey .

Following his teams 4-3 opening night loss to the Montreal Canadiens, however, the rookie blue liner could only think of the one bounce.With 43 seconds remaining in the third, Tomas Plekanec put a bouncing puck towards the Leafs net, which re-directed off of Percys skate and past goaltender Jonathan Bernier for the game winner.Following the loss, Percy could only focus on the miscue in the dying seconds.Disbelief, disappointment, said a dejected Percy. I dont know, its just tough. Tough letting the guys down tonight, tough to start with a loss.Guy going to the net, guy going to the corner, I just tried to get his stick and I did, but I guess I got to move my foot.Percy admitted his teammates tried to tell him to forget about the play afterwards.I told him its a bad bounce, said captain Dion Phaneuf. Thats the bottom line, hes got nothing to hold his head down (about). It hits his skate, its a shot from the corner, thats bad luck.Added Bernier, Obviously hes a great player. Hes very composed out there for a young kid. Just tough luck there. The guy threw it from the corner and it hit his skate, I dont think he saw it either.Obviously its not his fault and I kind of gave him a little tap on the back.The 21-year-old, who is in just his second season as a professional after spending last year with the American Hockey Leagues Toronto Marlies, played with the confidence of a veteran Wednesday night moving the puck with ease and skating it out of harms way. He was rewarded with power play time for his solid debut.Percy finished the night second among Leaafs defenceman, behind only Phaneuf, with 20:21 of time on ice. Jerry Rice Jersey. .I thought he played a fairly strong game for us, said Carlyle. He moved the puck effectively, hes very, very calm with the puck. The pace of the game was a lot different than what he saw in exhibition.Percy setup Tyler Bozak at 19:22 of the first period, on a power play, feeding the Leafs centre out of the corner to give Toronto a 2-1 lead after 20 minutes.Just tried to get some speed through the neutral zone there on the power play, tried to take it out wide to (James van Riemsdyk), said Percy of the play. I missed him and just luckily went down in the corner and made a quick move towards the net and saw (Bozak) was open.Percys assist along with fellow rookie Brandon Kozuns helper on the first goal landed the pair in the record books. According to the Elias Sports Bureau, theyre the first pair of Leafs rookies with a point in a season opener since Vincent Damphousse and Jeff Jackson scored in the season opener in 1986.I thought both guys played extremely well for us. They carried over how they played in the pre-season and they did not look out of place one bit, said Phaneuf. They raised their game to the speed of it and compete of it and I thought both those guys were really good for us.With injured Leafs defenceman Cody Franson (knee) targeting a Saturday return to the lineup, when Toronto hosts the Pittsburgh Penguins, coach Carlyle could have a tough decision on his hands.Franson admitted Wednesday morning that the swelling in his left knee hasnt subsided. Fransons injury coupled with Percys play could mean a second game for the Oakville, Ont. native. ' ' '
