Meghan Klingenberg embraces leadership, adversity as a binding force for Portland Thorns


Former UNC standout embodies leadership for the Portland Thorns. The gritty, foul-mouthed, kind-hearted, and philosophical fullback is an indispensable part of what makes the reigning NWSL champions great. Since joining the Thorns in 2016, Klingenberg has won two titles (2017, 2022) and helped define Portland’s team culture. (Oregon Live)
