Stephanie Renee Cox (* 3. April 1986 as Stephanie Renee Lopez , in San Jose , California ) is an American football player and -trainerin. She played for the US national team from 2008 to 2014 .
life and career
Stephanie Lopez started playing soccer at Elk Grove High School and played for Elk Grove United with Megan Rapinoe . Both there and at Portland University , she received several awards, but was often unable to play because she was traveling with various US youth teams. At the start of WPS 2009 she played for Los Angeles Sol , with which she reached the playoff finals against Sky Blue FC . After the club was dissolved due to financial problems, she moved to the Boston Breakers in 2010 .
Lopez played through several US youth teams and at the age of 18 was part of the team that was runner-up in the 2004 CONCACAF U-20 Championship in Canada . At the U-19 World Cup in Thailand in 2004 she was third, used in all six games and gave the templates in the quarter-finals against Australia in a 2-0 win on both goals. In 2005 she won the Nordic Cup with the U-21 . She was the captain of the team that finished fourth at the U-20 World Cup in Russia , where she scored in the lost penalty shoot-outs in the semi-finals and small finals.
Lopez was invited to practice with the senior national team for the first time in 2005 and made her first senior international match at the age of 18, shortly before her 19th birthday when she beat Denmark 4-0 in the Algarve Cup on March 13, 2005 , which the USA won, was substituted on. It remained her only game until the Algarve Cup the following year, when she came to two more games. After Heather Mitts suffered a cruciate ligament rupture , she was nominated as the youngest player and only college player for the 2007 World Cup , in which she was used in all games and was only substituted in the semifinals against Brazil in the second half.
For the Olympic Games in Beijing she was nominated as a replacement for the injured Cat Whitehill , where she was substituted on in four games and played once from the start. In the group game against Japan , she gave the template for the 1-0 winner by Carli Lloyd . She thus had her share of winning the gold medal - in the final she was only substituted in in the 120th minute.
In 2009 it was only enough for one use against Canada , while it was used more often again in 2010, u. a. at the Algarve Cup and in one game at the 2010 CONCACAF Women's Gold Cup .
In 2011 it seems to have finally established itself in the national team: It was used in nine out of ten games, including a. in the victories in the four-nation tournament and the Algarve Cup and is part of the US squad for the 2011 World Cup in Germany . She was used in two preliminary round matches and reached the quarter-finals with her team.
After the 2015 season, she announced her resignation. Subsequently she worked as an assistant trainer. At the beginning of the 2019 season she became active again, initially as a substitute player. After four games in June when other players took part in the 2019 World Cup, their contract was extended.
Private
In December 2007 she married Brian Cox , a former University of Portland baseball player . She had a daughter on April 7, 2013.
