Austen Everett Foundation Honorary Captain: Liam Senrud

During the NWSL Fall Series, OL Reign, as part of its longstanding partnership with the Austen Everett Foundation, will select an honorary team captain ahead of every match. OL Reign is proud to celebrate Liam Senrud as the club’s honorary captain for the September 26 match against Utah Royals FC.

Liam was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia when he was four and is undergoing treatment at Seattle Children’s Hospital. He enjoys playing sports and playing around in his family’s backyard and hopes to play on a team with other kids in the near future.

To recognize Liam as the club’s honorary captain, he and his brother will receive team gear to show off their OL Reign pride, as well as a video message from OL Reign player Sofia Huerta.

The Austen Everett Foundation works to empower kids in their fight against cancer through the strength and support of professional and collegiate athletic teams. Within the AEF Honorary Team Captain Program, a child battling cancer becomes the "Honorary Team Captain” for a day, providing a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to benefit from the powerful support that a team environment can provide.
