Born on December 14, 1992, in Boise, Idaho, Sofia Huerta embarked on her athletic career early, excelling in soccer, basketball, and track during high school. She was recognized as Idaho Gatorade Player of the Year twice for soccer and set high school records in hurdles. Huerta continued her collegiate career at Santa Clara University as a forward, where she was a four-year starter.

Her performance earned her numerous accolades, including First Team All-WCC selections and NCCA Division I All-American honors, showcasing her offensive capabilities early in her development.
Huerta’s professional journey began in 2015 when she was drafted 11th overall by the Chicago Red Stars in the NWSL. Initially playing as a forward, she demonstrated her scoring prowess by earning NWSL Player of the Week honors twice in her rookie season and being named a finalist for NWSL Rookie of the Year. She spent three seasons with the Red Stars, subsequently moving to the Houston Dash in 2018, where she transitioned to an outside back, a position she sought to pursue to align with national team aspirations.
