CHESTNUT HILL, Mass. – The highest scoring player in Boston College women's soccer history McKenzie Meehan announced her retirement from professional soccer on Monday.
After being selected with the 34th overall pick by Sky Blue FC in the 2017 National Women's Soccer League Draft, Meehan went on to play four seasons in the NWSL for Sky Blue FC and the NC Courage. The forward was a member of the NC Courage squad that won the 2019 NWSL Championship and finished as the runner-up in the 2019 Women's International Champions Cup.
Meehan finished her BC career as the program's all-time leading scorer with 124 points over 78 career games.
