After adding Julia Spetsmark earlier this week, the NC Courage took four players in the 2019 NWSL draft. Picking fifth, the team selected USC forward Leah Pruitt and picked again in the first round at number nine adding defender Hailey Harbison from from Pepperdine University. In the second round, the Courage took midfielder Lauren Milliet of Colorado College and rounded out the draft with fourth rounder Kaycie Tillman, a midfielder from National Champion Florida State University.
The 2019 season will require the Courage to depend on their depth even more so than their past two seasons when they reached the NWSL Championship.
