Trivia
Jordyn Huitema was the first Canadian player to score for the U-17, U-20, and senior national teams in the same calendar year (2017). She was the top scorer in the 2018 CONCACAF Women’s U-20 Championship, despite Canada not qualifying for the U-20 World Cup that year. Huitema’s move to OL Reign was partly motivated by her desire for more playing time and development opportunities, which she has successfully achieved with the club.
