Kaile Halvorsen of Santa Clara was selected in the third round of the NWSL draft today.
In the draft of the National Women’s Soccer League today, two players with a connection to Hawaii were selected.
Campbell alumna Chardonnay Curran, who recently finished her fifth season in the senior class in Oregon, was drafted 17th overall by Kansas City Current in the second round.
Kaiser graduate Kaile Halvorsen, who won a national championship in Santa Clara before recently ending her senior season with the Broncos, was picked 32nd overall in the third round by OL Reign.
OL Reign is based in Washington state and will play its 2022 home games at Lumen Field, home to the NFL’s Seattle Seahawks.
