Did You Know?

She holds the record for the most goals scored in the National Women’s Soccer League.
She set her high school record with 117 career goals (boys or girls) and scored 50 goals in her senior year alone.
After marrying Marley Biyendolo in late 2024, Lynn adopted her married last name in 2025, embracing a special Congolese family tradition connected to her father-in-law’s name.
She co-hosted a women’s soccer podcast called Snacks with teammate Sam Mewis and appeared in a Netflix documentary on the USWNT’s 2023 World Cup journey.
Her husband is the winner of Big Brother Australia 2021. They met while studying at Pepperdine and had an 18-month long-distance relationship due to Lynn's soccer commitments in the U.S.
She majored in Psychology at Pepperdine.
She taught herself to crochet during her rookie year and made crocheted tops. Later, she started making jewelry. She jokes she hasn't yet landed on her perfect creative outlet.
If Lynn could be on any reality TV show, she would choose MTV’s “The Challenge.” She grew up watching the show and feels confident she would excel at it. She even joked about teaming up with teammate Steph McCaffrey and competing against others like Sam Mewis and Christen Press.
She has several meaningful tattoos, including the number “21,” which was her Olympic jersey number, and a tattoo that says “I love you,” inspired by her mom.
She designed jewelry.
