Haley Jean McCutcheon (née Hanson; born February 22, 1996) is an American professional soccer player who plays as a defensive midfielder for the Orlando Pride of the National Women's Soccer League (NWSL). She has previously played for Houston Dash of the NWSL and Melbourne Victory in the Australian W-League. She made her senior international debut for the United States in 2018.
Club career
Houston Dash, 2018–2022
McCutcheon was chosen by the Houston Dash with the 7th overall pick in the 2018 NWSL College Draft out of the University of Nebraska. She signed with the Dash and made her debut on March 25, 2018, in a 1–1 draw against Chicago Red Stars.[2]
Orlando Pride, 2022–present
On August 18, 2022, McCutcheon was acquired via trade by the Orlando Pride in exchange for $75,000 in allocation money and a second-round pick in the 2023 NWSL Draft.[3]
McCutcheon won the NWSL Shield with the Pride as they finished the 2024 regular season in first place.[4] On November 8, 2024, she made her first NWSL playoff appearance; only Kealia Watt (138) had played more regular-season games before her playoff debut than McCutcheon (130). McCutcheon headed in the opening goal in that game, a 4–1 win over the Chicago Red Stars.[5][6] On October 17, during the semifinal game vs the KC Current, with the Current up 1-0, McCutcheon scored the tying goal off an assist from Ally Watt (the Pride went on to win 3-2).[7]
International career
McCutcheon received her first call-up to the United States Women's National Team in April 2018 as she was added to the roster as a replacement for Kelley O'Hara who pulled out due to injury. She earned her first cap on April 8 in a friendly against Mexico.[8]
On August 23, 2018, she was named to the United States U-23 team for the 2018 Nordic tournament.[9]
Personal life
She married her husband Payne McCutcheon in December 2022.
