Lindsey Burke Harris

From 2012 to 2016, Harris made 65 appearances for the Tar Heels, setting a program record of 90 saves in a single season. Harris transitioned her talents to the international professional circuit, commencing a three-season tenure across Iceland and Norway. In 2017, she joined the Icelandic side FH for one season, where her performance significantly contributed to a 35 percent reduction in the team’s goals against average. She then moved to the Norwegian club Klepp, playing for two years and instrumental in securing the team a coveted spot in the UEFA Champions League.

Her consistent high-level play also helped Klepp achieve a second-place finish in the Toppserien league table, culminating in her being named the 2019 Toppserien Goalkeeper of the Year. In 2020, Harris returned to the United States, signing with the Houston Dash as a free agent and making her National Women’s Soccer League (NWSL) debut in April 2021. During her tenure with the Dash, she appeared in five NWSL regular season matches, recording 10 saves, and was the first goalkeeper to earn a shutout in her club debut. She also secured two shutouts and six saves in two matches during the 2021 Challenge Cup, having previously been part of the squad that won the NWSL Challenge Cup in 2020.

Following her tenure in Houston, Harris had a brief spell with Damaiense in Liga BPI in 2023 before signing a short-term contract with Portland Thorns FC in July 2023. Harris continued her international career in October 2023, joining Al-Qadsiah in Saudi Arabia. In her inaugural season with the club, she quickly made her mark, winning the prestigious Best Goalkeeper award in both the Saudi Women’s Premier League and the SAFF Women’s Cup, underscoring her consistent elite performance on a global stage.
