The 28-year-old, who filled in for defender Emily Fox, was in the game for the entire 90 minutes. She was instrumental in her team's 2-0 victory in the friendly game against Colombia. Pickett has also represented the US on the under-17 and under-23 national teams.

        Nice. I have seen people with disabilities before. It’s not scary, it’s cool actually.

          Yeah, I read that people with autism are really smart, but they feel trapped inside their own minds. My older cousin has autism.

              That is so cool and inspiring! And It's really cute and funny when she fist bumped Joseph Todd! Carson will always be kicking a soccer ball no matter what that's what I'm guessing!😃⚽
