Brian McBride, Kristine Lilly and Bob Bradley have been elected to the 2014 class of the National Soccer Hall of Fame.

Lilly was honored after a national team career that saw her play in a world record 352 games for the United States between 1987 and 2010.

McBride, a veteran of three World Cups, joined Lilly as a first-ballot inductee into the Hall of Fame after a career that saw him play 95 times, scoring 30 goals for the national team.

Bradley enters the Hall of Fame after 13 years of coaching soccer at the highest levels in the United States, both in MLS with the Chicago Fire, New York/New Jersey MetroStars and Chivas USA, and with the U.S. Men’s National Team from 2007 to 2011.

The date and location for the induction ceremony have yet to be determined.

Here is a video tribute to the 2014 National Soccer Hall of Fame class:
