SEATTLE - It's been more than two decades since Marcelo Balboa retired from professional soccer, but the former defender remains as one of the most influential figures in the U.S. Soccer landscape.
The first player to represent the United States national team in 100 games, Balboa is a two-time U.S. Soccer Athlete of the Year and had the privilege to play for the USMNT at three different World Cups. He was also part of the 1995 team that represented the United States at Copa América.
