The Orlando Pride used their third-round pick (No. 24 overall) to select versatile Penn State forward Kerry Abello. The fact that the Penn State website lists Abello as a forward/midfielder/defender should be an indication of her ability to adapt to wherever the team needs her play.
“When we looked at Kerry it was about meeting needs for the ability to change formations quickly,” Orlando Pride Head Coach Marc Skinner said via Zoom between his team’s third- and fourth-round picks.
