Senior Reilyn Turner has been selected for the second consecutive year to the United Soccer Coaches' NCAA Division I Women's Soccer Players to Watch List for forwards.
Turner has posted three 10-plus goal seasons as a Bruin, tying for the team lead in goals a year ago with 11. She recorded her second career hat trick with three first-half goals at Oregon on Oct. 2, 2022 but her most memorable goal of the season was her final one, a header off a corner kick with 16 seconds remaining to tie the game in the national championship. Turner was named the Most Outstanding Offensive Player honors at the College Cup and was a first-team All-Pacific Region honoree in 2022. She has received a total of three All-Pac-12 honors and was the 2020 Pac-12 Freshman of the Year. Through her career, she has totaled 32 goals and 73 points and ranks No. 9 all-time at UCLA in career goals and game-winning goals (13). She led the NCAA in game-winning goals in 2022 with seven.
Turner is one of four Bruins on the Players to Watch List, joining midfielders Sunshine Fontes and Ally Lemos and defender Lilly Reale.
The preseason No. 1 Bruins open the season at home on Thursday, Aug. 17 against Georgia at 7pm. Tickets for the Georgia contest and all other regular season home games are on sale now at uclabruins.com/tickets.
