Mia Hamm Enshrined in National Soccer Hall of Fame

Posted Aug 27, 2007

Mia Hamm says there's no more humbling experience than to walk into a stadium and to see so many girls wearing your jersey. The former University of North Carolina star spoke Sunday before a record crowd of 4,800 at the National Soccer Hall of Fame. Hamm entered the shrine with Julie Foudy. The two were the bedrock of the U.S. team that won two World Cups and two Olympic gold medals from 1991 to 2004. (WRAL.com)
