In 1989, Caligiuri, who made over 100 international appearances for Team USA, became one of the United States’ most famous players after scoring the historic goal in the CONCACAF qualifying round. His 35-yard dipping volley gave the U.S. a 1-0 victory over Trinidad & Tobago and placed the U.S. in the 1990 World Cup for the fi rst time since 1950. At the 1990 World Cup, he started all three of the U.S. team’s games and scored the country’s fi rst World Cup goal in 40 years. Three other Bruins played in the 1990 World Cup — Chris Henderson, Paul Krumpe and David Vanole. UCLA soccer players have made their mark in the Olympic Games as well.

Four Bruins - Friedel, Hejduk, Pete Vagenas and Sasha Victorine were key contributors on the U.S. team that fi nished a best-ever fourth at the 2000 Games in Sydney.
