CHAPEL HILL – Emily Fox, Brianna Pinto and Taylor Otto were each chosen to continue their careers professionally in the NWSL draft on Wednesday evening.
Racing Louisville selected Emily Fox with the first overall pick of the draft.
Fox wrapped up a stellar career in Carolina Blue in the fall, where she competed in all 12 contests. Although her minutes were limited due to recovery from an ACL tear in 2019, Fox anchored a backline that surrendered just six goals.
A Hermann Trophy semifinalist in 2019, Fox started and competed in 69 career matches for the Tar Heels.
