Jasmyne Spencer was arguably the Orlando Pride’s top outfield player in 2016. She played in all 20 games a year ago, starting 17 of them and finishing second on the team in minutes played over the course of the inaugural season. The 27-year-old from Bay Shore, NY, finished last season tied for second in goals on the club, used her speed and quickness well in and around the box, and became a fan favorite by utilizing her diminutive size for maximum results.
Coming into Year 2, the Pride’s No. 4 overall pick in the 2015 NWSL Expansion Draft seemed primed to have a breakout year.
