As if her list of accomplishments wasn't long enough already, Hope Solo has a chance to add another one on Saturday. If Solo posts a shutout when the U.S. women meet South Africa at Soldier Field, she will have an even 100. Solo has soared to heights no other U.S. goalkeeper has reached with more victories than any other, not to mention a World Cup championship and two Olympic gold medals.
