Trinity Rodman was born on May 20th, 2002 in Newport Beach, California to Michelle Moyer and former NBA star Dennis Rodman.

Due to COVID-19, Rodman was unable to compete in her freshman year of college and elected to go straight into the NWSL draft rather than staying at Washington State University. Rodman was the second overall pick in the draft, following the University of North Carolina's Emily Fox who went to expansion side Racing Louisville FC.

On the field, Rodman is instantly recognizable for her height, speed, and attacking prowess. Nearing the end of her rookie season with the Spirit, the 5'10 forward has registered an impressive four goals and five assists. Her ability to weave through defenses and deliver threatening shots and crosses to teammates has proven to be an integral piece of the Spirit's offense this season.

Looking to maintain her teams playoff position, Rodman and her teammates will take on Rose Lavelle and OL Reign on Saturday, October 16th at 10:00PM EST at Cheney Stadium in Tacoma, Washington State.
