Abby Wambach officially is a Hall of Famer.

The former United States women’s national soccer team star was inducted into the National Soccer Hall of Fame on Saturday after her first year on the ballot. Wambach was introduced by Christie Pearce, who played with the former forward during her final years with the USWNT.

Wambach retired from professional soccer in 2015 as the all-time leader in international goals scored in 255 contests for the U.S.

The 39-year-old wasted no time making a few jokes while accepting the honor.
