Washington trades Canadian international Lindsay Agnew to the Houston Dash

HOUSTON — The Houston Dash acquired Canadian international Lindsay Agnew in a trade with the Washington Spirit on Tuesday.

Houston sent Washington the third overall pick in Thursday’s NWSL draft, getting Agnew and the No. 6 pick in return.

Washington now holds two of the top three selections in the first round, including the No. 1 overall pick. The Spirit had previously acquired the No. 6 pick in a trade with the Chicago Red Stars.

The Spirit took Agnew with the 19th pick in the 2017 NWSL college draft out of Ohio State. A forward/defender, she played in eight games last season with Washington.
