Crystal Dunn: American Girl

Posted Jun 21, 2019
Crystal Dunn: "When I put on our U.S. kit, I do it for my family and for my country. But I also do it for every American girl who wants to see someone who looks like them when they watch their women’s national team. I do it for girls who want to turn on the TV and see a piece of themselves. In 2015, I was one of those girls. This summer? I’ll be on the TV." (The Players' Tribune)
