University of Connecticut

Hill was a two-time semi-finalist for the MAC Hermann Trophy as a forward for the University of Connecticut Huskies, in 2015 and 2016.[5] Hill was a 1st Team NSCAA All-American in 2015 and a 2nd team All-American in 2016.

Club career

Orlando Pride, 2017–2019

Portland Thorns FC selected Hill with the 14th pick in the 2017 NWSL College Draft[7] and subsequently traded her to the Orlando Pride in exchange for first- and fourth-round picks in the 2018 NWSL College Draft.[5] The Pride signed Hill in May 2017 after her college graduation,[6][8][9] and she earned her first start on June 3.[10]

Hill scored her first professional goal on June 28, 2017, a game-winner against Sky Blue FC.[11] She finished her rookie season with three goals, one assist from only 14 games, 8 of which were starts. After her contract option exercised for 2018, Hill went on to play 21 games in 2018, but a nagging injury lead to her starting only seven of them. She scored four goals tying Marta as third best for the Pride. Hill had a new contract offer given at the end of the 2018 season.[12][13]

Perth Glory, 2017–2019 (loan)

On October 19, 2017, Hill joined Australian club Perth Glory on loan for the 2017–18 W-League season.[14] During her first season at Perth she finished with 9 goals, the third-most goals in the league and 6 assists, the most assists in the league.

She re-signed a loan agreement for 2018–2019 and ended the season with a further 6 goals as the team finished runners up in the Grand Final.[14]

Chicago Red Stars, 2020–2022

On January 16, 2020, Orlando traded Hill to the Chicago Red Stars during the 2020 NWSL College Draft along with a third-round pick, Orlando's natural first-round selection in the 2021 NWSL College Draft and an undisclosed amount of allocation money in exchange for the No. 3 overall selection and a third-round pick in the 2020 draft.[15] With the season disrupted by the COVID-19 pandemic, Hill eventually made her Red Stars debut during the 2020 NWSL Challenge Cup. Hill completed her time with the team in 2022.

Linköpings FC, 2020 (loan)

In August 2020, Hill joined Swedish Damallsvenskan club Linköpings FC on loan.[16]

San Diego Wave, 2023–Present

Hill was signed in free agency by San Diego Wave FC in December 2022.

International career

United States U-20 Women's

Hill appeared for the United States U-20 women's national soccer team in the 2014 FIFA U-20 Women's World Cup as a substitute against Brazil in group play.[3]

Hill appeared for the U-20 USWNT in five CONCACAF Women's U-20 Championship matches in 2014, starting in four matches, scoring one goal, and leading the team with five assists as an attacking midfielder.[17][18][19]

US Soccer called Hill up to the U-23 national team in 2016 U-23 Women's Nordic Tournament in June 2016 against England, Norway, and Sweden, a tournament that the United States won.[20]
