Soccer sensation Delaney Baie Pridham has clinched the prestigious title of the Northern Super League’s Player of the Year, adding another accolade to her remarkable career. Pridham, who plays for Ottawa Rapid, also secured the title of the league’s Forward of the Year, boasting the Golden Boot award with an impressive tally of 18 goals.
A dual citizen of Canada and the United States, Pridham, originally from northern California, dominated the NSL charts leading in both total shots taken (83) and shots on target (42). Her exceptional performance included a historic hat trick in June, marking a significant milestone in the league.
In a recent announcement, Jyllissa Harris from Ottawa was honored as the NSL Defender of the Year. Additionally, Pridham, along with teammates Olivia Scott and Min A Lee, earned spots in the league’s coveted “Team of the Year.”
Despite finishing as the runner-up in the six-team league, Ottawa Rapid showcased a strong season with 11 wins, eight losses, and six ties, accumulating 39 points in 25 games. The team is now gearing up to face off against the Vancouver Rise in a crucial home-and-home semifinal series scheduled for the upcoming week.
