Deyna Castellanos, perhaps the biggest international college soccer player in the history of the game, has no interest in playing in the NWSL.
The Venezuelan international who starred at Florida State for four years, will instead join Atlético Madrid. The 20-year-old inked a two-and-a-half-year contract through the 2022 season on Thursday.
It was one of the wildest NCAA soccer games in recent memory, and it was the perfect way to close out 2019 in U.S. soccer.
Georgetown outlasted top-seeded Virginia to claim the Hoyas’ first-ever men’s College Cup title in an epic match on Sunday in Cary, North Carolina. The teams were tied 3-3 after regulation before Georgetown keeper Tomas Romero, a freshman, came up with the only save of a penalty kick shootout to lift his side to a 7-6 win.
After a long, emotional and highlight-reel-filled 2019 women’s college soccer season came to a close, it was only right for the season to end in one of the highest and most nail-biting ways.
Washington State, North Carolina, Stanford and UCLA clinched their ticket to the 2019 College Cup. An opportunity of a lifetime for these collegiate athletes, but for UNC, Stanford and UCLA, this stage is not unfamiliar to them. However, the Washington State women's soccer team has never appeared on this national stage to compete for the 2019 NCAA Women’s College Cup title in San Jose, CA.
This Stanford women's soccer team is not to be trifled with this season.
The No. 1 Cardinal put together the most dominating performance in the history of the NCAA women’s soccer tournament, thrashing Prairie View A&M 15-0 on Friday night in Stanford, California.

Last week, one of the greatest players in University of North Carolina and USWNT history announced that she’s returning to her old stomping grounds. This time, Heather O’Reilly will be telling others to “get on the line.”
O’Reilly is joining the UNC women’s soccer team alongside Anson Dorrance as the assistant coach. Dorrance’s introduction of O’Reilly truly explained her importance to both the UNC squad and the USWNT — along with, of course, calling her out for mistakes.
College soccer is back in full swing so The18 has compiled some of the craziest college soccer records of all time
For both the men's and women's games, these college soccer records may never be broken.
Youth soccer in America is changing. Over the past few years, U.S. soccer has moved to profoundly address the exclusivity of high-level grass roots play. Talented footballers at the high school age can get offered to play for a program known as a Development Academy (DA). Both Major League Soccer and other youth clubs all over the U.S. have Development Academy teams, from the high school age all the way down to U-12.
