She didn’t start playing soccer until she was ten years old, after trying several other sports like softball, baseball, and flag football.

She is a twin and grew up in West Hills, California, alongside her brother Parker.

Before starting college, she signed a name, image, and likeness (NIL) deal with Nike—an unusual feat for a freshman athlete.

She suffered a medical emergency on the field during a match in May 2025 and later underwent successful surgery for a heart abnormality.

As co-captain, she helped the U.S. U-20 team finish third at the 2024 FIFA U-20 Women’s World Cup—their best result since 2012.

She has two moms, Carrie and Kim, who both have athletic backgrounds—Carrie was a world-class runner and cyclist, while Kim played basketball.

Running was Savannah’s first sport—she started at age five and was trained by her mom Carrie, who still helps her with workouts and compares times.
