NWSL draft, HAO to Arsenal, & more: WoSo Week in Review

Between the NWSL College Draft, Heather O’Reilly leaving the NWSL, and other trades, it was a busy week for women’s soccer. Last Thursday, the Boston Breakers dominated the first round but FC Kansas City and Sky Blue FC made some of the best picks. Later in the week, O’Reilly signed an 18-month contract with Arsenal Ladies FC.
