Alex Morgan
Alexandra Patricia "Alex" Morgan (born July 2, 1989) is an American soccer player and Olympic Gold medalist. She is a forward for National Women’s Soccer League club Portland Thorns FC and the U.S. Women’s National Team. Morgan was drafted number one overall in the 2011 WPS Draft by the Western New York Flash. She was the youngest player on the USA’s roster at the 2011 FIFA Women’s World Cup. At the 2012 London Olympics, her game-winning goal in the 123rd minute against Canada was Morgan’s team-high 20th in 2012, becoming only the sixth and youngest U.S. player to do so in a single year. Morgan finished 2012 with 28 goals and 21 assists, joining Mia Hamm as the only American women to score 20 goals and 20 assists in the same calendar year, and was named U.S. Soccer Female Athlete of the Year.
Off the field, Morgan has a deal with Simon & Schuster to write a middle-grade book series about four soccer-playing girls entitled The Kicks. The first book in the series, Saving the Team (ISBN 1442485701), debuted at number seven on the The New York Times Best Seller list for Children’s Middle Grade in May 2013. The next book, Sabotage Season, is expected to be released in September 2013 More
