Julie Doyle was drafted by the Orlando Pride in the first round (11th overall) in the 2022 NWSL Draft from Santa Clara University. She signed a one-year contract with the Pride on Jan. 27 with a club option for an additional year.

Near the end of the season, Doyle started five consecutive games, but had a big impact as a super sub.
