Thanks to a standout rookie season in the NWSL and a solid run with the USWNT U-20 squad, San Diego Wave midfielder/forward Jaedyn Shaw was announced today as the 2022 Chipotle U.S. Soccer Young Female Player of the Year. She joins an elite class of female soccer players to win the award, first awarded in 1998 to current U.S. Soccer President Cindy Parlow Cone.
“It means everything to me to be a part of the list of players who have won this award, but it also tells me I have so much work to do to keep improving and growing,” said Shaw.
