Early life

White was raised in Rockwall, Texas. She played high school soccer at Bishop Lynch High School and club soccer for Sting SC. [2]

College career

White became the starting goalkeeper for the Texas Tech Red Raiders as a freshman in 2019. She planned to redshirt her first year but was called into action against South Florida when Marissa Zucchetto was injured, making seven saves to win her debut. [3] [4] She contributed to her team's second-place finish in the Big 12 Conference, shutting out six conference opponents, and was named the Big 12 freshman of the year and first-team All-Big 12. [2] In the first round of the 2019 NCAA championship, she made a career-high 11 saves in regulation and then saved two kicks in the penalty shootout to advance past Pepperdine, but lost in the next round. [5] [6] White recorded a conference-best nine clean sheets as a senior in 2022, earning second-team All-Big 12 honors. [2]

In the 2023 season, White helped lead the Red Raiders to their first Big 12 regular-season title in program history. [3] She recorded career highs with 70 saves and 13 clean sheets (including eight home games in a row), being named the Big 12 goalkeeper of the year, first-team All-Big 12, and first-team All-American by United Soccer Coaches. [2] [7] In the program's first NCAA championship appearance since her freshman year, she made a season-high six saves in regulation against Princeton and added a kick save in the shootout to make it to the third round, where they fell to North Carolina. [2] [8] She set the program record for most career shutouts (39), passing Victoria Esson). [2] [9]

Club career

White was drafted by Racing Louisville FC 54th overall in the fourth round of the 2024 NWSL Draft. [7] She signed a two-year contract with the club in June, and on July 22 she was loaned to Dallas Trinity FC for an undisclosed fee for the inaugural 2024–25 USL Super League season. [10]
