Alex Morgan, a member of the USA Women’s Soccer team that just won gold in London, is set to a write middle grade series called Kicks.

The pitch came to S&S shortly after Morgan scored the game-winning goal against Canada in the Olympic semi-finals on August 6. Morgan, 23, is a forward for the Seattle Sounders Women and was the youngest U.S. player at the 2011 FIFA Women’s World Cup.
