Seattle Reign sign 17-year-old GK Evan O'Steen

Seventeen-year old Evan O'Steen has signed a one-year contract with Seattle Reign FC, the club announced on Friday. She became the youngest goalkeeper signee in the franchise's history.

O'Steen played in four games, starting twice for Florida State's national championship team in the fall of 2025. The freshman logged 169 minutes, made two saves and didn't allow a goal while combining on three shutouts.

The Seminoles went on to win the 2025 national championship, their fifth title, all achieved since 2014. Five other Florida State players have been signed to professional contracts since they captured the championship in December.

The native of Grapevine, Texas, trained with the Reign early in the 2025 campaign, along with Dallas Trinity FC of the Gainbridge Super League.

"We're pleased to welcome Evan O'Steen to Seattle," said Seattle Reign FC General Manager Lesle Gallimore. "Evan is an exceptional young talent who has already demonstrated composure and quality beyond her years. At Reign FC, we take pride in helping players develop and reach their potential, and we're excited to be part of Evan's journey as she continues to grow as both a goalkeeper and a professional."

Internationally, O'Steen has competed for the United States U-17 Women's National Team and saw action in the 2025 FIFA U-17 Women's World Cup. She posted a shutout in the opening match against Ecuador.

O'Steen also earned Golden Glove honors after recording four shutouts in the 2024 U-17 World Cup.

"I'm honored to sign with Seattle Reign FC," said O'Steen. "Training with the club provided me with a clear sense of the standards and culture here, and I'm excited to continue learning and growing in this incredible environment."

O'Steen joins former Seminole goalkeeper Cassie Miller on the Reign, along with Claudia Dickey and Seattle native Neeku Purcell.

The Reign gave up the fourth fewest goals (31) in the NWSL in 2025 with Dickey serving as the team's No. 1 goalkeeper.
