[quote=Anonymous]Wasn't Alex Morgan still playing rec soccer at 13? I also think she, like a lot of other USWNT players, was just an exceptional athlete who played several sports. However, I think one could argue "that was then, this is now" and a girl or boy who is currently 13 and has only played rec soccer has virtually no chance of playing professionally or for a national team. Several reasons for this, some of which were mentioned by prior posters, but there are also a ton more kids playing soccer, and receiving high level coaching, that it just makes it that much harder for a current 13 year old Alex Morgan wannabe to ever get noticed, let alone catch up to her/his peers.[/quote]
