Melissa Henderson announced today that she will come out of retirement to join the Houston Dash for her second full season with the club.
“We are very happy to have Melissa back this season,” Dash managing director Brain Ching said. “She has the mentality we want at this club. Her character and skill will be key in establishing an identity for the Dash as we make a push for the playoffs.”
Henderson, 26, was acquired by the Dash via trade from FC Kansas City in July 2014. She made 29 appearances (22 starts) and notched two assists in one and a half seasons with the Dash.
