Sealey Lynne Strawn (born October 1, 2007) is an American college soccer player who plays as a forward for the North Carolina Tar Heels. Previously an academy player for Dallas Trinity, she was the USL Super League Young Player of the Year in 2025.

Early life

[edit]

Strawn grew up in the Dallas suburb of Prosper, Texas, the daughter of Kelsey and Greg Strawn.[2] She has three siblings, including two adopted from Thailand.[2] At age three, she took after her older brother and began playing soccer.[3] She started out with the local rec team in Tyler, Texas,[4] before joining powerhouse club Solar SC around age 13,[3] where she won ECNL national championships in 2021 and 2023.[5] Her idol growing up was Lionel Messi.[6] She committed to play college soccer for the North Carolina Tar Heels during her junior year.[7] She was ranked by TopDrawerSoccer as the eighth-best prospect in the class of 2026, part of North Carolina's top-ranked recruiting class.[8]

Club career

[edit]

Strawn began training with the Dallas Trinity at age 17 before the launch of the USL Super League in August 2024.[4] She soon officially signed as an academy player (allowing her to retain college eligibility) while staying active with her youth club Solar SC.[4] She made her first appearance for the Trinity in their exhibition debut at the Cotton Bowl against Barcelona.[4] On September 25, she made her Super League debut as a halftime substitute for Gracie Brian in a 2–0 loss to Brooklyn FC.[9]

On November 2, 2024, Strawn scored her first Super League goal in the 87th minute of the game against Fort Lauderdale United, securing a 1–0 victory.[10] She finished her debut season with 4 goals in 19 games, ranking third in scoring for the Trinity behind Chioma Ubogagu and Allie Thornton.[11] Youth international duty kept her out of their playoff game against the Tampa Bay Sun.[12] Following the season, she was voted the inaugural Young Player of the Year as the league's top player under the age of 23.[13]

On May 16, 2026, Strawn scored twice in a playoff-clinching 4–0 win over Fort Lauderdale United on the final day of the season.[14] She finished her second season as the Trinity's leading scorer with 5 goals in 25 games.[15] In the playoff semifinals, Dallas lost 2–0 to eventual champions Lexington SC.[16] After her second year, Strawn came second in voting for Young Player of the Year behind Ashlyn Puerta.[17] In two seasons in the Super League, she made 45 appearances, including 20 starts, and scored 9 goals.[18]

International career

[edit]

Strawn played for the United States under-15 team in 2022 and was called up to train at the under-19 level in 2024.[19][20] She made her under-20 debut at the 2025 CONCACAF Women's U-20 Championship, scoring one goal in two games.[13] She appeared in all four games and scored one goal at the 2026 FIFA U-20 Women's World Cup in Poland; the under-20s lost on penalties to Brazil in the round of 16.[21]
