Despite her USYNT commitments, she still took up a leadership role at the university soccer team, California Golden Bears.

Soon after graduating from university, she deservedly was Western New York Flash?s first overall pick in the 2011 WPS draft.

All about Alex Morgan?s family

In 1989, Morgan was born to Pamela and Michael Morgan.

After a few years of long-distance dating, Servando Carrasco decided to take it to the next level. The MLS soccer star proposed to Morgan in 2013 in Manhattan Beach.

While her first spell in 2016 wasn?t the best, she ended the 2017 season on a high after scoring nine goals and four assists in thirteen games. After a few more decent seasons at the club, the USWNT legend went on maternity leave in October 2019.
