Thanks,
Matt

Matt,
I'm going to copy and paste from the matchroompool.com site. Here they pretty much give you the info you're asking about. Wikipedia will give you the names and how many years they played, but this site actually gave "some" scores, doesn't look like it gave all of them, but it's the best I could do for you. Hope this helps!
The Players
Shawn Putnam (ranked #7) - represented America in the 2005 Mosconi Cup in Vegas where he garnered a two wins from five match record. 'Big Bubba' will be itching for a return to Mosconi action.
Charlie Williams (ranked #8) - a veteran of five Mosconi Cups, Williams has been on the victorious side four times including downing the winning 9 ball in Holland in 2004. Plenty of experience of the white heat of Mosconi Cup battle.
Charlie Bryant (ranked #9) - the big-breaking Bryant has been a fringe Mosconi Cup contender for a few years now. Patriotic to the core, 'Hillbilly' would certainly make his presence felt in Vegas.
Stevie Moore (ranked #10) - well thought of, Moore has been knocking on the door of Mosconi Cup selection in recent years. Could 2009 be the year he breaks through?
Rodney Morris (ranked #11) - the fourth highest American points scorer in Mosconi Cup history, Morris has won 19 of 30 matches in his six appearances for Team USA. A team player, the Rocket has been a valuable asset to the USA in previous Mosconi Cups.
Kim Davenport (ranked #13) - first played in the event in 1997 and went on to make two further appearances. Davenport's eight wins from 14 game record helped his side win on those three occasions. A former Mosconi Cup skipper, Kim is the eldest and most experienced of the contenders.
Dennis Hatch (ranked #14) - the aggressive Hatch could be just what the USA needs when battle commences. Renowned as a 9 ball player, Hatch has operated under the Mosconi cup radar until now.
John Schmidt (ranked #15) - 'Mr 400' made his one and only Mosconi appearance in the drawn match in Rotterdam in 2006 where he recorded a single victory. The 2006 US Open Champ will be looking for the chance to make amends.
John,if anything i would look at the career of all 8 instead of how they did in a couple of races to 5.

There will be no crucifying. All opinions welcomed and encouraged. Actually, Charlie's record was the only one that was incomplete on the matchroompool.com site. Thanks for your addition. My vote has already been cast, (I'm sure anyone who has followed my posts knows who for) but you are welcome to try and sway other people's votes.I got this in an email from Dragon P. Please dont curcify me for publishing this LOL

USA has not won the Cup since 2005, the last time Williams was on the team, and lost badly the last 2 years. Coincidence? LOL probably but Williams has established himself as a winning team player .
Highlights of Williams Mosconi Cup Career:
-USA has won 4 out of 5 times with CW on the team, including 3 in a row streak from 2003-2005
-WIlliams is in the top 5 most winningest player for Team USA
-Williams was first and only rookie player ever to go undefeated in rookie year in the 12-1 demolishing of Europe in 2001
-Williams was only player with winning record in the 2002 loss to Europe
-Williams made the winning 9-ball against Steve Davis of UK in 2004 to clinch victory for USA
-Williams has been described by his teammates as "a player who even when is not playing contributes to the team with encouragement,cheers,advice, and cares more about their game than his own"
