In Familiar Turf, Haley Kopmeyer Comes Up Big

Haley Kopmeyer is no stranger to Seattle.

Every day for five seasons she ate, slept and trained among Seattle Reign FC until she got the call on Jan. 29 that she had been traded.

Her new destination: Orlando, Fla. - Home of the Orlando Pride.

Since joining the Pride, Kopmeyer has taken on the role as the backup to U.S. WNT goalkeeper Ashlyn Harris.

But with Harris on duty with the national team, Kopmeyer was called upon to make the start for the Pride in the very town she got her start: Seattle.

“Being back here just kind of felt like old times,” Kopmeyer said after the 0-0 result.
