So, apparently CONCACAF decided to have the U20 tournament pull double-duty and also serve as the qualifiers for the Olympics. By making the Semi-Finals of the tournament, the US U20 team qualified for the U20 World Cup next year in 2023 (they've gone to every one since 2013), and by making the Final, they've qualified for the 2024 Olympics (which they haven't gone to since 2008). Normally the US gets CONCACAF'd by changes, but this time it worked out!
I haven't bothered watching the games, but seeing every player on the roster on a professional team warms my heart; back in the 90's, I think it was mostly college players.
