As a kid, she scored so much that her dad made her play in goal or use only her non-dominant foot.

She played futsal, which helped her develop her skills in tight spaces.

She tore her ACL in her first college preseason game but bounced back to have a stellar career at North Carolina.

She comes from the same town as Sam and Kristie Mewis and trained with them while growing up, impressing them with her professionalism and work ethic at a young age.

In middle school, Ally got a history textbook that had Sam Mewis' name signed in it from when she was a student which made her very excited since Sam was on the national team.

Her pre-game routine includes pancakes, eggs, strawberries, coffee, and a few sour gummy worms.

She likes to listen to Rihanna before games.

She runs her own summer soccer camps for young girls, handling everything from coaching to marketing.

She graduated from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (UNC-CH) with a degree in advertising and public relations from the Hussman School of Journalism and Media.

Her favorite season is the summer.

Her favorite quote is "It is not the critic who counts.." by Theodore Roosevelt.

Her favorite off-day activities are doing something near a body of water, shopping and cooking.

Sometimes people call her Alvin because she loved the movie Alvin and the Chipmunks.
