True has a singular path: to be the greatest soccer player
of her generation. But to realize her dream, she’ll need
to make the Under-17 National Team, then the Residency
Program, and the ultimate: the US Women’s National Team.
Otherwise she can say goodbye to the Women’s World Cup.
And True will do whatever it takes to be the top girl on
the field. True has to stay focused because her family is crumbling.
With the loss of her mother, True is forced to take care
of her autistic younger sister while her grieving father
wastes his time gambling. And high school isn’t much
better. While True’s teammates are getting taller and
growing up, she’s hardening around the edges, at a loss
for what it means to be a typical teen girl. But when
she’s in the game, the anxieties of family and fitting in
just fade away. True—with her soft feet and deft first
touch—can knock anyone off the ball. And more importantly,
she can throw an elbow harder than anybody else. On the
pitch, she’s a soccer player first, a sister second. On
the pitch, she’s free.
