Her recent signing with Arsenal represents the culmination of her dreams since childhood, having followed the Premier League closely for years. Nighswonger acknowledges the differences between the NWSL's fast-paced style and the more tactical nature of the Women's Super League (WSL), emphasizing her eagerness to adapt and grow within her new team, highlighting the transition from one league to another.
I always wanted to come here because that's who I'd watched growing up.
This is something I wanted to do since I was like, seven or eight.
I think the NWSL is very transitional and the WSL is more tactical.
When this opportunity presented itself, I was so happy to join.
