(CNN Student News) -- March 6, 2008 Women's History Month - Learn about the superlative career of a world-champion female soccer player. Women's History Month AZUZ: You know that expression, "You're pretty good... for a girl"? Mia Hamm was one of the best, period. When she retired from the U.S. national soccer team in 2004, the phenomenal forward had scored 158 goals in international competition. That was the most for anyone ever, man or woman! Some other soccer superlatives: Hamm was the youngest person ever to play for the U.S. national team; she was just 15 when she started. While she was there, the team won the 1991 and 1999 World Cups and took home Olympic gold in 1996 and 2004. And FIFA, the international soccer federation, named Hamm Women's World Player of the Year twice. MIA HAMM: That's the positive side, the doors it opens for so many girls. It's unlimited now. AZUZ: But she didn't just give the girls something to shoot for. She gave that to everyone. Honoring Mia Hamm this Women's History Month.
