UofL’s Emina Ekic declares for 2021 women’s soccer draft

Raise your hand if you knew the University of Louisville women’s soccer team had the 2020 offensive player of the year in the Atlantic Coast Conference. Something to look forward to for next season maybe?

Sorry but UofL’s Emina Ekic won’t be around next year. Erik announced last week that she is foregoing her remaining eligibility to declare for the National Women’s Soccer League (NWSL) Draft, which will take place in January. She is a senior but would have had another year under NCAA rules resulting from the Covid-19 pandemic.

“I want to thank Card Nation for being absolutely incredible with your support throughout the years,” she tweeted on Thursday.
