Kristine Lilly was a girl who was a determined soccer player by the age of six. Kristine lived in New York City and there were no girls' soccer teams, so she joined the boys' team.

Lilly has played in more international games than any other man or women in soccer history. In 2005, she was named the U.S. Soccer Female Athlete for the second time in her life. She is the current captain of her team. With her Kristine Lilly Soccer Camp she encourages young girls to follow their dreams.
