OL Reign forward Megan Rapinoe was named the August Player of the Month by the NWSL Media Association. The honor came thanks to her four goals and three assists throughout the month, which helped the Reign to a 2-1-1 record in August.
Rapinoe and OL Reign right back Sofia Huerta were also named to the August Team of the Month.
Rapinoe opened the month with an assist in OL Reign’s 1-1 draw with Racing Louisville — whipping a lovely corner kick in for Jess Fishlock to finish.
She then scored the opening goal in the Reign’s match against the Houston Dash.
