Soccer Phenom Indi Cowie Puts the ‘I’ in Team
Posted Mar 26, 2011
Last spring, Indi Cowie performed her freestyle soccer routine for 76,000 fans during halftime at a Chelsea-Manchester United match in Manchester. This 16-year-old does things that no other girl on the planet can do. It has been Cowie’s dream to play soccer [at UNC] ever since she saw the Tar Heel legend Mia Hamm score a goal and Cowie recognized a familiar and comforting single-mindedness.
