This may be related to Ezurike becoming deallocated by the Canadian Soccer Association. She also didn't receive much playing time last season, usually subbing in during the second half and averaging about 34 minutes per game. She had 23 caps over two seasons and tallied three goals and one assist.
This also increases the likelihood that Boston will take a forward in the draft. Stay tuned on Friday for comprehensive draft coverage.
