We knew it was going to be the biggest event scheduled in the history of women's sports, but we didn't ever fathom we would be playing before sold-out stadiums all over the country.

UNC symbolizes something special. When you get chills you know you belong here.

The national team comes before everything.

Michael Jordan always wore his Carolina shorts under his Bulls' uniform.

Getting a chance to practice six months against my own teammates, who I consider the best soccer players in the world, there's no way I couldn't improve.

If my soccer career were over, I would still come here because of the people. And despite the fact I've had to skip some school for National Team purposes, I am looking forward to holding that Carolina degree as soon as I can get my hands on it.

This season is my most special and most cherished. All my focus is on getting that championship back here.
