USWNT star Jaedyn Shaw makes more history with latest NWSL goal for San Diego Wave
29 April 2024
USWNT star Jaedyn Shaw has been making more history, with an impressive NWSL goal record being posted by the teenage sensation.
Youngster starring for club & country
Has reached 10 goals in the NWSL
More to come in a productive 2024
WHAT HAPPENED?
At just 19 years of age, Shaw is quickly becoming a talismanic presence for club and country. She has been making history with the United States while helping them to CONCACAF W Gold Cup and SheBelieves Cup glory in 2024.
THE BIGGER PICTURE
The youngster has also made a flying start at domestic level this year, with the San Diego Wave benefiting considerably from her presence. Shaw, who became the second-youngest player to grace an NWSL fixture when making her debut at the age of 17 in July 2022, has been in impressive form in front of goal.
DID YOU KNOW?
She was on target once again in the Wave’s 2-1 victory over Bay FC. Said effort was Shaw’s 10th in the NWSL and has seen her become the first teenager to reach double figures in the division’s history – with that notable mark reached at 19 years and 159 days old.
WHAT NEXT FOR SHAW?
Shaw will be hoping that there are many more efforts to come for her club side this season, as they chase down more major honours. There is also every chance that the hottest of prospects will be gracing the Olympic Games in Paris with the USWNT later this year.
