Early Life

Carli Lloyd was born Carli Anne Lloyd on July 16, 1982, in Delran Township, New Jersey. She is the daughter of Pamela and Stephen Lloyd, and she has two siblings, Ashley and Stephen. Carli started playing soccer when she was five years old, and her mother said of that time, "At that age, it was coed, and Carli was hanging with the boys. She always loved it and showed a lot of ability from an early age, but she also has always worked hard." After attending the 1999 FIFA Women's World Cup, Lloyd was inspired to play for the U.S. national team someday. She was on the soccer team at Delran High School, and as a senior, she was the team captain and scored 26 goals.

She was named the South Jersey Soccer Coaches Association Midfielder of the Year and the Courier-Post Player of the Year in 2000.

From 2001 to 2004, Lloyd played for the Scarlet Knights soccer team at Rutgers University and was selected as a First-Team All-Big East every year, an honor no other Rutgers student had achieved at that time. She ended her college soccer career as Rutgers' all-time leader in goals (50) and points (117). During her time at Rutgers, Carli was named Big East Rookie of the Year, a Big East Academic All-Star, and a Big East Midfielder of the Year, and she was chosen for Soccer America's All-Freshman Team and was a finalist for the Hermann Trophy.

Personal Life

During her pregnancy, Lloyd wrote an essay for Women's Health about her struggles getting pregnant. After trying to get pregnant naturally, Carli underwent three rounds of in vitro fertilization. She said of the process, "It was a waiting game that we literally had no control over. And it's hard. I felt all the emotions during my career—stress, worry, fear, anxiety—but I'd never felt all the emotions that IVF brought on. I felt completely out of control. It's an indescribable roller coaster unless you go through it."
