The National Women’s Soccer League (NWSL) team OL Reign have recently announced their end-of-season roster changes. The team, which is based in Tacoma, Washington, have made some significant changes to their roster in order to prepare for the upcoming season.
The most notable change is the departure of midfielder Allie Long. Long had been with the team since 2017 and was an integral part of their success over the past few years. She was a key player in the team’s run to the NWSL Championship in 2019 and was named to the NWSL Best XI in 2020.
In addition to Long, the team has also said goodbye to defender Steph Catley and forward Jasmyne Spencer. Catley had been with the team since 2018 and was a key part of their defense. Spencer had been with the team since 2016 and was a reliable goal scorer.
The team has also added several new players to their roster. These include midfielder Morgan Andrews, defender Kaleigh Riehl, and forward Mallory Eubanks. Andrews is a former USWNT player who has experience playing in both the NWSL and W-League. Riehl is a former college standout who was recently drafted by the Reign in the 2021 NWSL Draft. Eubanks is a former college standout who was recently signed by the Reign as a free agent.
These changes are sure to have an impact on the team’s performance in the upcoming season. It will be interesting to see how these new players fit into the team’s system and how they help the Reign reach their goals for the 2021 season.
