Tiffany Milbrett voted 2000 Chevrolet Athlete of the
Year, and Aly Wagner is Young Athlete of the Year
Milbrett
has long played a major part in the U.S. National Team's success story but has
been overshadowed by the incredible media coverage given to Hamm and Akers.
She has demonstrated a consistently high level of performance that reached a
peak at the 2000 Olympics.
Wagner has shown her potential as a midfielder with the U.S. Under-21
National Team, and with the U.S. National Team where she had four goals and
two assists in 10 matches. Only injuries have kept her from realizing her full
potential.
