The Boston Breakers drafted four players in the 2018 NWSL draft, filling in spots where they had a need from last season and filling in some needs for 2018 due to several players rehabbing injuries in the offseason.
With the second overall pick in the draft, the Breakers took South Carolina forward Savannah McCaskill. McCaskill is a nice, pacey forward and final-third playmaker who could help the Breakers find a much-needed scoring edge.
“She scores good goals. She scores simple goals,” said Breakers head coach Matt Beard after the first round of the draft.
