Mallory Pugh. 18 Years old. Soccer legend.
To begin, it is
crazy to think that this girl is actually my age. She is the true definition of
“goals” in the mind of a high school or college soccer girl. For those of you who don’t know Mal Pugh I am
here to tell her story. She is an American soccer player who plays for the U.S.
Women’s National Soccer Team and also a member of the UCLA Women’s team. She is
from Colorado where she played for the ECNL team of Real Colorado. Pugh also
was the youngest member of the 2014 FIFA U-20 Women’s World Cup that took place
in Canada. At age 17 she was also the youngest soccer player to premier on the U.S.
team in January of 2016 since Heather O’Reilly back in 2002. Some of her awards
include U.S. Soccer Young Female Player of the Year and Gatorade National Girls
Soccer Player of the Year in 2015. In 2016 she was the youngest player selected
for the Olympic U.S. Women’s Team.
Feeling accomplished yet?
Wow, this girl has accomplished so much! It warms my feminist heart to see young women being leaders in their field.
