, one of the top center midfielders in the country, announced her verbal commitment to Washington last week. Leyva’s older brother Danny plays for the Seattle Sounders, so the two siblings will be in the same city again soon. The younger Leyva was one of the best talents in the ECNL as she picked apart teams with her passing and finishing from the midfield role. She suffered a knee injury last year, and missed most of the previous season. Leyva’s best attribute was her brilliance on the field, so there is little doubt she will return to that high level in the future thanks to her soccer brain. Washington is making a fairly safe bet that she will reach those high levels again, as she is a key piece for this 2024 class, which is shaping up to be one of best in Huskies’ history.
