USWNT star Trinity Rodman surpasses Sam Kerr's NWSL record with latest Washington Spirit showing

  • Rodman hits 10 NWSL goals and assists
  • Youngest player to reach milestone
  • Surpasses Kerr's previous record

WHAT HAPPENED? Rodman scored and assisted as the Spirit picked up their third win of the season on Saturday, making the 20-year-old the youngest ever player to register 10 goals and 10 assists in NWSL history, surpassing a record previously held by Chelsea star Kerr.

THE BIGGER PICTURE: It continued Rodman's fine start to the 2023 season, as she boasts three goals and two assists in her six games of the campaign, and strengthened her case to be a starter for the USWNT at this summer's Women's World Cup.

DID YOU KNOW? Kerr enjoyed seven prolific seasons in the United States before her move to England and holds a number of records as a result. She remains the league's all-time leading scorer, holds the record for the most goals in a single season and has won the most Golden Boot and Most Valuable Player awards.
