You have to control what you can control, not the entire game, and try to play the best soccer possible and play clean and be smart and professional.

Anytime you have any opportunity to be with the national team it's an honor and a challenge, and it is something I am looking forward to.

Some of the players are known as scorers or assists. I guess what I am known as being is an ironwoman.

Women's soccer is not heavily publicized, so when you have an opportunity to be in a big magazine that publicity can be good. It definitely helpes as far as awareness about women's soccer.

I want to do some things before I have children, because when I have children it's not going to happen. I've done bungee jumping, I've done the running with the bulls, I guess sky diving is the last thing on my list.

Always double-knot your sneakers. One of my teammates once lost a shoe during a game!

I eat a huge breakfast every morning - it's what I look forward to. I'll do steel-cut oatmeal with blueberries and strawberries, an egg white scramble with mushrooms, zucchini, and onion, and a piece of cinnamon Ezekiel bread with almond butter. I could do that every single day.
