Steffens, who turns 31 on Tuesday, is the only holdover from the U.S. team that won gold at the 2012 London Games. The American captain is the career leading scorer for women's water polo at the Olympics with 56 goals.
Since Steffens started playing for the national team, the U.S. has outscored its opponents 240-126 while compiling a 17-1-1 record at the Olympics.
No team — men or women — has won four straight water polo titles at the Games.
Johnson, Rachel Fattal, Kaleigh Gilchrist and Maddie Musselman are each trying for a third gold medal.
