In her first season as a professional, Lardner made 23 appearances (three starts), totaling 565 minutes. She registered a brace in her second career start for Racing on July 26 at Angel City FC in a 2-1 triumph.

Before Racing
The 5-foot-8 rookie comes from Georgetown University, where she spent a five-year collegiate career. She appeared in 91 games for the Hoyas, scoring 31 goals and registering 20 assists.
Lardner’s collegiate career took off in her junior season of 2024. She started every game of her junior and senior seasons, 44 in total, leading the team in scoring both seasons — 25 goals combined, along with 11 assists.
Lardner earned the Big East Offensive Player of the Year Award and an All-BIG EAST first team selection in both 2024 and 2025. The United Soccer Coaches named her a second-team All-American after her senior year in 2025.
Upon launching, Racing Louisville made its city home to a major-league sports franchise for the first time in 41 years. The club plays in the NWSL — the world’s top women’s soccer circuit that’s home to most members of the highly successful U.S. national team — and plays at Lynn Family Stadium.
