 Things are looking good on the Hope Solo front for Dancing With The Stars, as she survived the first test.

The only groups to score higher (22) were the teams of Chynna Phillips and Tony Dovolani and J.R. Martinez and Karina Smirnoff. Metta World Peace (Ron Artest) and Petra Murgatroyd scored a 14.

You can't beat that for your first-ever night as a professional dancer. Well, your first night as a celebrity dancer. It's all the same, right?

She danced well, she looked good, she was in rhythm. What else could you ask for?

The thing about Solo is that she can't dance, and she even admits it in a radio show with Bob Fescoe of KCSP,

"

It's been fun and again, all of this, I really feel like I'm taking one for the team because I'm putting all of my insecurities out for the world to see. They have 20 plus million viewers every Monday and Tuesday night, and I cannot dance.

"

As someone that enters the show without a lot of experience as a dancer, she has the most upside, and that's what gives her the edge in this competition.

She came out strong in her first performance, and she is only going to get better from here on out. Don't believe me? Watch for yourself.
