World women’s soccer team boast…

The Women’s Professional Soccer Championship will be contested in Rochester, NY, as the Philadelphia Independence come to Sahlen’s Stadium to take on the Western New York Flash. The game will feature some of the best women’s soccer players in the world.

In addition to having played in two World Cup tournaments, she won a WPS title last year and NCAA titles while at the University of Portland.
