Orlando Pride News Release


ORLANDO, Fla. - The Orlando Pride and goalkeeper Kat Asman have agreed to a two-year contract through the 2026 season, it was announced today.

"Kat is a phenomenal addition to our goalkeeping corps and is someone we expect to provide competition and push this group to be even better than they have been," VP of Soccer Operations and Sporting Director Haley Carter said. "We are so excited for what she brings to the group both on and off the pitch and are confident she will play an important role in our upcoming season. Kat is a great fit for our Club, and we look forward to providing her the atmosphere and tools to grow her game and make an impact in Orlando."

"I am extremely excited to join the reigning NWSL champions. A big reason I felt so drawn to joining the Pride is their drive to creating a connected team culture that thrives on building relationships off the field in order to cultivate results on the field," Asman said. "Over the last season, I've been able to watch Orlando have an unforgettable season, and I feel very blessed that I get to be a part of everything this team will continue to build in the future."

Asman spent the 2024 season with the Portland Thorns after she was selected in the third round, No. 39 overall, in the 2024 NWSL Draft by the Thorns.

Prior to being drafted by the Thorns, Asman played collegiately at Penn State University, where she was the starting goalkeeper for the Nittany Lions all four years in State College.
