    Lisa Nañez

    Professional soccer player has local roots


    As a young girl playing soccer, Lisa Nañez never dreamed she'd become a pro athlete, competing in front of a hometown crowd. She just focused on how much she enjoyed the game. Today, the Los Gatos native is a defender for the Bay Area CyberRays, a professional women's soccer team. "It's incredible to be playing with the best soccer players in the world," said Nañez, 24. She plays with such world-renowned players as South Bay native Brandi Chastain and Brazilian players Katia Cilene da Silva Teixeira and Sisleide do Amor Lima, whom fans know as "Katia" and "Sissi." "I feel honored having [them] on my side. Every day, I learn something new from them."   More
