Lo'eau LaBonta made history by debuting for the United States women's national soccer team at the age of 32 years and 74 days, becoming the oldest player ever to do so. Her entrance during a match against China capped a decade of professional play in the NWSL without a USWNT call-up until recently. LaBonta, captain of the Kansas City Current, contributed significantly to her team's success, showcasing resilience and determination throughout her career, as highlighted in her celebratory remarks following the match.
Midfielder McCall Zerboni set the previous USWNT record for oldest debut in 2017 when she debuted just before her 31st birthday.
LaBonta is the captain of the NWSL's Kansas City Current and was a significant contributor to the team's record-breaking attack in 2024.
