All in all, the collective Twitter mourning was reminiscent of when young women lamented Ohio State guard Aaron Craft's engagement.
Don't worry, guys. Morgan's United States teammate Sydney Leroux is still available.
I hope Alex Morgan's engagement doesn't give @sydneyleroux any ideas...I'm not ready to get married yet #Patience
