She is an inspiration to all young soccer players that wish to follow their dreams of becoming a professional player," Orlando Pride Head Coach Marc Skinner said. "She possesses excellent technical skills and is a student of the game. She really has the ability to be a top player if she continues to work hard at her game and we're excited for her to continue as part of the Pride."

Viggiano, 23, served as the Pride's leading goal-scorer throughout the NWSL Fall Series, finding the back of the net twice in four matches. The midfielder was one of four players to play every minute for the Pride in its four Fall Series matches, leading the side in passing accuracy at 80.82%.
