Why Shannon Boxx ranks #136 in Football
Shannon Boxx ranks 136th among Football athletes on GOAT Rank and 268th of 4013 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 86.1 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 82, Peak 89, Longevity 82, Honours 94, Statistics 84. Those categories are normalised against the full Football reference universe of 895 records, not a shortlist, so the position reflects the whole sport rather than a handful of famous names.
The record covers 2003–2015 with 13 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 2009, which sets the Peak component at 89. Honours is the defining strength of the profile at 94 out of 100, and it carries 20% of the final score. The underlying career record includes olympic gold medals 3, world cup titles 1, united states caps 195, united states goals 27.
Immediately ahead sits Gheorghe Hagi on 86.1, a gap of 0.0 points. Directly behind is Lena Goeßling on 86.1. The position moves whenever the verified record moves: new titles, new seasons or a corrected source all feed straight back into the same formula, and every change is dated on this profile.
