Custom vans and road trips for the travelling girls soccer team called the Challengers from Fort Wayne, Indiana was part of my childhood experience. A foundation for team building, physical fitness and my love of the sport. The field was a were I learned to suck purple clover and how to repair a skinned knee. Soccer was were neighbors gathered, carpools were created and time stood still during half time while the quartered oranges where share amoung the girls. Ice water poured over the coach when the game was won. Soccer to me is days of salad bars at restaurants like Wendy's, Rax and Ponderosa. Suicide colas and ice cream bars. Number 40 will always be painted upon my back. I am the face of soccer in the USA.
