I could just have chips and salsa for dinner every day.

I love watching gymnastics, swimming, and track and field.

I don't like to stop. I'm a big person who looks at where the hubs are because I hate changing planes.

Soccer isn't very social. Plus, if you don't like someone on the other team, you can do something about it.

Golf is social. It brings a lot of people together.

I played basketball and soccer my freshman year in high school.

Sports have become increasingly more specialized, but that doesn't mean they shouldn't be fun.

If you don't love what you do, you won't do it with much conviction or passion.

As a mother I think you often get so caught up in trying to take care of everyone else that you forget to take care of yourself. But I'm a much better wife and mother when I take the time to take care of myself.

English muffins with avocado is one of my favorite breakfasts.

Chicken, brown rice, and veggies is a great healthy dinner option. It's full of whole grains and protein, and will keep you full for a long time.

You can't just beat a team, you have to leave a lasting impression in their minds so they never want to see you again.

I make a lot of mistakes, too, and I'm constantly re-evaluating how I'm doing things and trying to be better every day, whether it's as a mom or taking care of myself.

I got to experience soccer at the highest level at a young age; I decided I wanted to be part of that for as long as possible.

I could sit there and eat pasta all day long and not worry about it when I was younger, and now I really have to focus on making sure I set a good example for my kids.

I don't like to play rough, but I will if I have to.

You may get skinned knees and elbows, but it's worth it if you score a spectacular goal.

I am happy that the young girls have a lot more choices these days and an opportunity to feel better about themselves.

Being a good teammate is when you try to sprint down a ball that everyone thinks is going out of bounds. But you go after it anyways and you get it.

It is not sacrifice if you love what you're doing.
