"It's one of the few times as a coach that I'm not selfish in the fact of what's best for the team," Petke said. "I want so bad for this kid to play in the U-20 World Cup. Even if it meant that we wouldn't have him. If we could have him back three weeks early here as opposed to him being ready for the World Cup, I'd prefer him to be ready for the World Cup. He's earned that right. He's done phenomenally. He's played so well. I just hope it happens for him."
