U.S. Soccer Names Award After Duke Assistant Coach Carla Overbeck
8/30/2022 2:53:00 PM | Women's Soccer
DURHAM – U.S. Soccer announced this past week that the board of directors voted to approve two new awards that will be presented each year at the Annual General Meeting dinner. One of the awards is named after Duke women's soccer assistant coach Carla Overbeck – The Carla Overbeck Leadership Award.
The Carla Overbeck Leadership Award will be given to an individual who demonstrates a unique ability to lead and guide others and who contributes to the success of an initiative that benefits those outside their own organization and places emphasis on collaboration within and among leadership.
One of the best to play the game of soccer, Overbeck is one of the most respected and decorated women's soccer players in the world. Her playing accomplishments are more than impressive. Overbeck was a member of three U.S. World Cup teams, two Olympic squads and one Goodwill Games.
A defender, Overbeck was instrumental in leading the U.S. to the 1999 Women's World Cup Championship and lifted the trophy at the Rose Bowl, after playing every minute of all six games. In the final against China, she nailed the opening penalty kick in the shootout. Overbeck was one of only two players who played every minute of the 1999 World Cup, the 1996 Olympics and 1995 World Cup.
Overbeck was an instrumental player for the U.S. in winning the 1991 Women's World Cup in China. She captained the 1995 U.S. World Cup squad that advanced to the semifinals and also served as captain of the 1996 U.S. Olympic Team that won the gold medal.
Overbeck was a member of the 2000 Olympic team in Australia that won the silver medal and captained the USA to the first Goodwill Games gold medal in the summer of 1998. Overbeck was captain of the gold medal winning U.S. team at the 1996 Olympics in Atlanta. She played in 63 consecutive international matches, which was a record for any U.S. National Team player – men or women.
In her 31 years as an assistant coach with the Blue Devils, Overbeck has helped lead Duke to 27 NCAA Tournaments, NCAA College Cup appearances in 1992, 2011, 2015 and 2017 and the 2017 ACC regular season championship.
On May 6, 2006, Overbeck was elected to the National Soccer Hall of Fame and was a 2010 North Carolina Sports Hall of Fame inductee.
