Washington, D.C. - Washington Spirit captain and goalkeeper Aubrey Kingsbury has been named to the NWSL's Best XI of the Month, presented by Amazon Prime, for her performance during April competition, the league announced today. Kingsbury earns the honor as the top goalkeeper of the month for the sixth time in her career and first time since the Spirit's 2021 championship season.
