Lisa Cantrell (née Krzykowski; born September 10, 1976, in Milwaukee) is a retired American soccer player who played for the Atlanta Beat.[1][2]

Early life and education

Krzykowski was born in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, on September 10, 1976.[3] She grew up in Cedarburg, Wisconsin, and attended Cedarburg High School,[4][5] where she excelled in both soccer and basketball.[6] Her senior year, the girls' soccer team played in the statement championships for the first time, finishing in the runner-up position.[4] Krzykowski received First Team All-State and First Team All-American honors in soccer,[4] and held school records for her basketball performance.[6]

From 1994 to 1998, she attended the University of Wisconsin–Milwaukee.[7] In 1997, she was named a second-team Academic All-American, followed by the league's Coleman Medal of Honor the next year, recognizing her as the league's top female student-athlete.[4][7] She graduated magna cum laude with the title of Midwestern Collegiate Conference Scholar-Athlete.[7]

Career

While studying at the University of Wisconsin–Milwaukee from 1994 to 1998, Krzykowski played for the school's women's soccer team. All four years, she was included in the first-team All-Midwestern Collegiate Conference (MCC) and All-Great Lakes Region lineup.[7][5] She earned a spot on the MCC All-Tournament Team three times.[7][5] In 1995 and 1997, she was named MCC Player of the Year.[4][7][5] Upon graduation, she held five school records: career goals (57), goals in a single season (16), assists in a game (5), assists in a season (12), and assists in her career (27).[4][7]

Following graduation, Krzykowski played semi-professionally for the Chicago Cobras in the USL W-League, where she won the 1999 W-League National Championship.[4]

She then played for 1. FFC Turbine Potsdam in the German Frauen-Bundesliga for a season.[citation needed]

Upon the foundation of the Women's United Soccer Association (WUSA) in 2000, Krzykowski was drafted to play for the Atlanta Beat.[4] Upon signing, she became the first "first woman from Wisconsin to ever play professional soccer".[8] In 2002, she broke her left ulna during a game, resulting in a mid-season break.[9] She played as a starting defender for two seasons before being waived[9] and transferring to the San Diego Spirit, where she played in the back line.[4]
