Crystal Dunn's Long Road From 2015 Cut to 2019 USWNT World Cup Roster

Posted May 5, 2019
Former UNC soccer star Crystal Dunn wanted to watch the 2015 Women's World Cup, but not by herself. She couldn’t watch with other soccer players, because they knew how close she’d been to making the team. She was too far away from family. She needed to find someone who loved the game as much as she did and also wouldn’t judge her emotions. (Sports Illustrated)
