Orlando Pride Claim Defender McKenzie Berryhill Off Waivers from Portland Thorns

The Orlando Pride have acquired former Arizona State and Portland Thorns defender McKenzie Berryhill off waivers from the Portland Thorns. Berryhill is a versatile defender that has experience playing both fullback positions, which could help bolster the Pride's back line, which lacks depth in the wake of Steph Catley's season-ending disabled list.

Berryhill comes to Orlando having spent the season in Portland, appearing in five games for the Thorns and starting two of them. She has experience playing all four positions on the back line, which will come in handy through the last few games of the Pride's season and possibly into next year.
