American Sarah Killion Signs with Lady Reds

American National Women's Soccer League player Sarah Killion will be trading in her 'Sky Blue' for RED this season as a Lady Red!

Sarah joins the squad next week and is looking forward to the experience.

"I am extremely excited to sign with Adelaide this coming season! I can't wait to get in with a new group of girls and a new staff and learn as much as I can.

I hope that I can have a positive impact on the team and help in any way possible. I am looking forward to the season and to becoming a Lady Red!"

Sky Blue FC selected Killion second overall in the 2015 NWSL College Draft, and she made 13 starts in 17 games this past season while registering one assist. Prior to arriving in New Jersey, the Indiana native starred during a collegiate career at UCLA. With 77 starts over 88 appearances, Killion had her best campaign as a senior when she tallied 30 points on nine goals and 12 assists. All marks were career highs, with the 12 assists matching her 2013 tally and equaling a school record. In addition to her personal accomplishments, she also played a pivotal role in leading UCLA to the 2013 NCAA College Cup Championship.

On the international level, Killion played for the U.S. U-18 Women’s National Team and started for a U-20 side that won the FIFA World Championship in 2012. The crafty midfielder then made the next step in her career when she was selected to the U.S. U-23 National Team, which won the 2013 Four Nations Tournament. In 2014, Killion received her first call-up to a training camp by the senior side of the U.S. Women’s National Team.
