From Champions League winners to European Newcomers - the UEFA Women's Europa Cup is heading into the Round of 16
The UEFA Women's Europa Cup is back for its second season. After two qualifying rounds, the second-tier European club competition will play the first leg of the round of 16 on the 28th and 29th October. With the reigning champions BK Häcken playing in the Champions League this season, the Europa Cup will definitely see a new winner.
So, how does the competition work? How did last season go? And which teams will face each other this time around? Let's take a look at the competition and the clubs fighting to lift the trophy.
A Brief History of the UWEC & its First Season
In 2001, UEFA created the UEFA Women's Cup, establishing a European competition for women's clubs, following several decades of European knock-out competitions for men's clubs.
A few years later, in 2009, the Women's Cup was rebranded as the Women's Champions League to match the styling of the men's tournament. The competition was also expanded to allow more clubs and countries to participate.
For a long time, the UWCL remained the only European club competition in women's football.
This changed in late 2023 when UEFA announced a new second-tier tournament, set to start in the 2025/26 season. The name of this new competition was officially announced a year later, in late 2024; UEFA Women's Europa Cup.
The inaugural season started last year and saw Swedish side BK Häcken becoming the first ever winners after beating their domestic rivals Hammarby IF in the final. Häcken's Felicia Schröder was the season's top goalscorer with eight goals.
The season also demonstrated the value of a second-tier European competition, giving clubs that didn't qualify for the Champions League the opportunity to still compete internationally. 16 clubs from 13 different countries competed for the Cup and even more new clubs are joining the competition this season.
How does the competition work?
Unlike the UWCL, the Europa Cup is a pure knock-out tournament with no group stage or league phase. Each round, including the final, is played over two legs with each team hosting one game.
Over the course of the tournament, 44 clubs from all over Europe take part. Clubs can enter through their league position in the previous season or by being eliminated in the early stages (qualifying rounds two and three) of the current Champions League season.
The Europa Cup winners earn a spot in the third qualifying round of the following season's UWCL. However, if the reigning UWCL winners have already qualified for the league phase through their domestic league - as Barcelona did this season, the UWEC winners will qualify for the league phase directly.
The competition starts out with two qualifying rounds before beginning the main tournament with the round of 16.
First qualifying round
The first UWEC qualifying round features 24 clubs, divided into 12 ties, with all winners advancing to the next qualifying round. 13 spots in the first qualifying round are allocated directly based on domestic league positions from the previous season. All European football associations are ranked by UEFA based on their teams' performances in recent years and this ranking determines which teams qualify. All runners-up from the associations ranked 18 to 24 qualify for the first round, including those from Scotland, Slovenia or Ireland.
The other six teams qualifying for the first round through their leagues are the third-placed teams from the associations ranked 8 throughout 24, including nations such as the Netherlands, Norway or Switzerland.
The remaining eleven spots are filled by teams eliminated from the Champions League. These are the teams that placed third in the UWCL second round mini tournaments.
Second qualifying round
The second UWEC qualifying round features 32 clubs competing in 16 ties, with the winners advancing to the round of 16.
Twelve of these spots are reserved for the winners from the previous round while the remaining 20 spaces are filled by more teams eliminated from the second and third qualifying rounds of the Champions League. Eleven of these 20 teams qualify after finishing as runners-up in the mini tournaments while nine clubs join after losing in the third qualifying round.
This Season so Far
The second edition of the Europa Cup is already well underway. The first qualifying round took place in late August and early September, followed by the second qualifying round in late September.
The first leg of the upcoming round of 16 is scheduled for the 28th and 29th October, with the second taking place on 10th and 11th November.
As all the rounds have already been drawn, there will be no further draws this season. The 16 remaining teams from eleven European countries therefore all know the path they must take in order to reach the final and potentially take home the trophy.
The Teams: A Debrief
Some teams already have a lot of European experience while others are newly established clubs in women's football. Let's take a quick look at all the teams, how they made it to the round of 16 and which players could make a difference.
PSV Eindhoven - Eintracht Frankfurt
PSV Eindhoven (Netherlands)
The reigning Dutch champions have made it to the round of 16 once again. Having won the Eredivisie for the very first time in their history last season, Eindhoven are eager to take revenge on Frankfurt for knocking them out of the Europa Cup in last season's round of 16.
Established in 2012 as a joint women's team for PSV Eindhoven and FC Eindhoven, PSV/FC Eindhoven started in the newly established BeNe League before joining the reformed Eredivisie in 2015. That same year, FC Eindhoven withdrew from women's football so PSV incorporated the team into their club completely, using the same name and branding for both teams. Despite reaching the KNVB Cup final eight times, they've only managed to win silverware in the competition once.
This season, Eindhoven started in the second UWCL qualifying round, winning that round but then losing to Danish side HB Køge in the third qualifying round. This result, however, qualified them for the second Europa Cup round in which they defeated Danish club Fortuna Hjørring.
PSV's captain is Belgian international Janice Cayman. Other key players include Liz Rijsbergen, who has scored six goals and three assists in the seven league games before the international break, Chimera Ripa, who has scored four goals and one assist and Nicky Evrard, who has kept four clean sheets in the seven games. A young player on everyone's radar should be Rosalie Renfurm, the 18-year-old midfielder has already played several minutes in the Eredivisie this season and made a big impact.
Eintracht Frankfurt (Germany)
Frankfurt is without a doubt one of the most experienced teams in European competitions and made it all the way to the Europa Cup semi-finals last season, where they lost to BK Häcken.
Originally established in 1990 as SG Praunheim, the team became independent as 1. FFC Frankfurt in 1998 before eventually fusioning with and being acquired by Eintracht Frankfurt in 2020. The team is the only founding Bundesliga member never to have been relegated in its history, currently playing in its 37th consecutive season.
1. FFC Frankfurt have won the Bundesliga seven times between 1998 and 2008, as well as the DFB Cup nine times, most recently in 2014. The club has also won the Champions League four times between 2001 and 2014.
After finishing third in the Bundesliga last season, Frankfurt won the second UWCL qualifying round but then lost the third round to French side Paris Saint-Germain. This qualified them for the second UWEC round, though, which they won against FH Hafnarfjörður from Iceland.
German international Laura Freigang is Frankfurt's captain and really important for the team, having scored four goals in the six games Frankfurt played before the international break. Erëleta Memeti is another key player, having scored one goal and six assists so far and Nina Lührßen is not only important for the team's defence but has also scored two goals and one assist as well. She plays alongside other important defence players like Marthine Østenstad, who has started five out of six games. Another important and rather young player on the team is Lina Altenburg, the 21-year-old goalkeeper started every game so far and has kept two clean sheets.
Real Sociedad - Fenerbahçe
Real Sociedad (Spain)
Having not competed in any European competition last season, Real Sociedad are hungry to prove that their Europa Cup spot is deserved.
After their establishment in 2004, the team started out in the regional league and won back-to-back promotions to reach the first division in 2006. They have played there ever since, winning the Copa de la Reina once in 2019 but have yet to win the Liga F.
Finishing third in their league last season qualified Sociedad for the third UWCL qualifying round which they lost to English side Chelsea. This led them to the second Europa Cup qualifying round which they won against Scottish champions Hearts of Midlothian to reach the round of 16.
Real's captain Nerea Eizagirre has played a couple of games for the Spanish national team and has so far scored one goal and one assist in six games this season. Other key players include Cecilia Marcos, who has scored twice, Paula Fernández, who has provided one goal and one assist and Ainhoa Moraza, an important defender who has started every game before the international break. A young player to watch out for is Julia Arrula, the 20-year-old goalkeeper has started all matches so far and has kept two clean sheets.
Fenerbahçe (Türkiye)
Reigning Turkish champions Fenerbahçe didn't participate in any UEFA competition last year either, but the first-time Süper Ligi champions will certainly be looking to establish themselves on the international stage.
Originally established in 1994, the team was shut down for economic reasons just two years later despite two fairly successful seasons. In 2021, the club re-established its women's department, reaching the league playoffs semi-finals in their first season.
Winning their first league title led them to the second UWCL round where they won the mini tournament semi-final but lost the final on penalties. This loss, however, qualified them for the second UWEC round where they faced Belarusian side FC Minsk. Fenerbahçe won the tie and advanced to the round of 16.
A little fun fact about the club's name; fener means lighthouse and bahçe means garden, so Fenerbahçe translates to "lighthouse garden".
Turkish international Ece Türkoğlu is Fenerbahçe's captain. Another important player is Andra Stašková who has scored five goals and two assists in the club's first five games. Other key players include goalkeeper Natalia Munteanu, who has played four games and conceded only one goal so far, and Regina Otu, a key midfielder. Fenerbahçe's young player to watch is 23-year-old Marie Ngah, who has scored four goals and two assists in just three Süper Ligi games so far this season.
SK Brann - Czarni Sosnowiec
SK Brann (Norway)
The reigning champions from Norway are back in the Europa Cup and have already progressed further than last season, when they lost the second UWEC qualifying round to eventual finalists Hammarby IF.
Established in 1987 as IL Sandviken, the team was one of the founding members of Norway's top division. They have experienced some very good and some pretty bad seasons over the years, bouncing between the first and second tier several times. The club won the Norgesmesterskapet - the main Norwegian Cup competition - in 1995. Shortly after winning their first ever Toppserien title in 2021, the team fusioned with and was acquired by SK Brann Bergen. They went on to win the double the following year and reached the quarter-finals of the 2023/24 Champions League season. Having won their third league title last year and their third Cup this year, Brann are currently ranked top of the Toppserien once again, just a few points ahead of Aalesunds FK ith only a handful of matchdays left.
The team won their second UWCL qualifying round games but lost to Austria Wien in the third qualifying round, despite winning the first leg. Brann beat Finnish club HJK Helsinki in the second Europa Cup qualifying round to make it to the round of 16.
Captain and Norwegian Caroline Haugland is a key player with six goals and five assists alongside Joanna Tynnilä, an important defender for the club, who has played almost every minute of the league this year. Brann's top goalscorer is Brenna Lovera who has scored 14 goals and three assists in the 18 Toppserien games this season, while Lauren Davidson has produced six goals and four assists. 20-year-old midfielder Carina Alfredsen should be on everyone's radar, she played in 16 out of 18 games before international break, assisted three times and was an important part of Brann's midfield.
Czarni Sosnowiec (Poland)
Not participating in any UEFA competition last year certainly made the reigning Polish champions hungry for a season of European football.
Founded in 1974, Sosnowiec enjoyed great success from 1979 until around 2000, establishing themselves as one of the most dominant Polish clubs during that time and winning several championships. Financial problems in the early 2000s led to them playing in the second league from 2008 until they made it back to the Ekstraliga in 2014. The team fully re-established themselves in 2020, winning the league for the first time in over 20 years in the 2020/21 season. Last season's victory marked their 14th Ekstraliga championship in their history, the same number of Orlen Polski Cups they've won. Czarni Sosnowiec doesn't have a successful men's team.
Becoming Polish champions qualified them for the first UWCL round which they won. After also winning the second qualifying round, they lost the third one to Belgian champions OH Leuven. They then faced Icelandic side Breiðablik in the second Europa Cup qualifying round, winning the tie to reach the round of 16.
Czarni's captain is Polish attacking player Klaudia Miłek, who is also their current top goalscorer with four goals and one assist in five games before the international break. Other crucial players are Anna Palińska who has kept three clean sheets in four games, and Karlīna Miksone, who has scored two goals and one assist as one of the most important players in Czarni's midfield. Defender Daria Kurzawa has provided two assists and is among the players who have played the most minutes so far this season. A young player everyone should keep an eye on is 17-year-old Zofia Burzan who has scored three goals in four matches.
Sparta Praha - Torreense
Sparta Praha (Czechia)
Last season's semi-finalists and Czech champions Sparta Praha are ready to prove once again why they should be on everyone's radar.
Established in 1975, Sparta won the league in their debut season and went on to become one of the most successful clubs in the history of Czech women's football. They became Czechoslovakian champions twelve times before continuing their dominant run in the Czech Republic's I. Liga, winning 22 out of 33 seasons to date. In addition to their 34 league wins in total, they have also won eleven Komise Fotbalu Cups since 2008 and reached the Champions League quarter-finals in the 2005/06 season.
After losing the third UWCL qualifying round to Swiss club Servette FCC, they continued to the second Europa Cup round. Sparta Praha played Romanian side Farul Constanța there, winning and advancing to the round of 16.
Czech international Eva Bartoňová is Sosnowiec's captain. Michaela Khyrova is another important part of the team, having scored eight goals and two assists in the club's first six games. Other key players include goalkeeper Nikola Harantova, who has played five games and kept two clean sheets, and Franny Černá, a crucial midfielder who has scored one goal and one assist. Sosnowiec's young player to watch is 17-year-old Natálie Peškova, an important midfielder who has played in six league games.
SCU Torreense (Portugal)
Torreense didn't participate in any UEFA competition last year, but that will only serve to further motivate the Portuguese side.
Originally established in 1978, the team played in local competitions for a few years before getting shut down for years. The team was only re-established in 2018, starting out in Portugal's second division before achieving promotion in 2020. The team has since won one Taça de Portugal in 2025 but has yet to win the Portuguese league.
Finishing third in the Campeonato Nacional took them to the second UWCL qualifying round where they lost their semi-final of the mini tournament but ultimately won the third-place game and thereby moved on to the first UWEC qualifying round. The team beat Ukrainian side Kolos Kovalivka, advancing to the second round where they defeated Metalist 1925 Kharkiv, another Ukrainian club.
Captain Raquel Ferreira is Portuguese and one of the team's key players alongside goalkeeper Rute Costa who has kept a clean sheet in their first two games. Maile Hayes is one of Torreense's top goalscorers, having scored three goals and one assist in the three games before the international break this season, while Ella Tonkin has also scored three goals and is an important defender for the Portuguese side. 21-year-old defender Bruna Ramos should be on everyone's radar, she has played in all of the team's games so far and is an important part of Torreense's defence which has not conceded a single goal yet.
Spartak Myjava - Hammarby IF
Spartak Myjava (Slovakia)
The reigning Slovakian champions are back in European competition after being knocked out of the second UWCL qualifying round last season, which also ruled them out of the Europa Cup.
Established in 2009, Myjava started out in the second division, gradually making their way to the top until they earned promotion to the 1. Slovenská Futbalová Liga in the 2014/2015 season. They climbed the league slowly but steadily once again until they won their first championship in 2021/22. Spartak have won the league every year since, last season marked their fifth consecutive victory and they have also won the Slovakian Cup four times in a row since 2023.
This season, they started in the first UWCL qualifying round, winning both that round and the second round's semi-finals but then lost to Polish side Czarni Sosnowiec in the final. That loss, however, qualified them for the second Europa Cup qualifying round in which they defeated Greek club PAOK.
Unfortunately, the data on the Slovakian league is rather limited, so all of this information is based on Instagram posts shared by the team themselves. The captain of the team is Slovakian international Katarína Vredíková, who has already scored three goals this season. Goalkeeper Viktória Opalková most likely played in all the games before the international break, keeping a clean sheet in three out of seven. Myjava’s top goalscorers include Andrea Bogorová, who has scored eleven goals, and Madelyn Dougherty, who has scored eight. Defender Barbora Vargová has also found the back of the net six times. 18-year-old Tamara Kramlíková has already scored ten goals and should be on everyone’s radar.
Hammarby IF (Sweden)
Hammarby's first Europa Cup season was a really successful one, the club made it all the way to the final last season, where they lost to their domestic rivals BK Häcken, finishing the season as runners-up.
Established in 1970, Hammarby were one of the pioneers of Swedish women's football, becoming founding members of the Damallsvenskan in 1988. After 24 consecutive seasons in the first division, the team faced relegation in 2011 and became a yo-yo team for some years, bouncing between the first and second division a few times. They finally re-established themselves in the Damallsvenskan in 2021, winning their second Swedish league title, almost 40 years after their first. The team has also won the Swedish Cup four times, most recently in 2025.
After finishing second in the Damallsvenskan last season, Hammarby won the second UWCL qualifying round mini tournament semi-finals but then lost the final to Italian side Juventus Turin. This qualified them for the second UWEC qualifying round, though, which they won against Scottish side Rangers FC.
Swedish centre-back Alice Carlsson is Hammarby's captain and really important for the team, having played more minutes than any other player in Hammarby's 20 games before the international break. Elin Sørum is another key player, having scored seven goals and three assists so far, while Stina Lennartsson is important not only for the team's defence but has also scored two goals and five assists. She plays alongside other crucial defensive players like Sofia Reidy, who has scored three goals and one assist. Another important and really young player on the team is Fanny Peterson, the 16-year-old midfielder has played in almost every game, starting eleven of them, and has scored six goals.
Ajax Amsterdam - Malmö FF
Ajax Amsterdam (Netherlands)
After already reaching the Europa Cup round of 16 last season, Ajax are hungry to make it even further in the competition this year.
After their establishment in 2012, the team started out in the BeNe League and played there for three seasons before joining the Eredivisie following its reform in 2015. Ajax have consistently performed well, finishing in the top three every year since. They won the Eredivisie back-to-back in 2016/17 and 2017/18 and then again in 2022/23. They have also won the KNVB Cup six times between 2013 and 2024 and reached the Champions League quarter-finals in 2023/24.
Finishing second in the Eredivisie last season qualified Amsterdam for the second UWCL qualifying round which they won. However, they then lost the third round to Spanish team Real Madrid. This led them to the second Europa Cup qualifying round which they won against Kazakh side FC Aktobe to reach the round of 16 for the second consecutive year.
Ajax's captain Sherida Spitse is not only the most capped Oranje Leuwinnen player but holds that record for the whole of Europe. So far this season, Spitse has scored one goal and three assists in the seven games before the international break. Other key players include Katja Snoeijs, who has scored five goals, midfielder Nadine Noordam with one goal and three assists, and Anna Knol, a crucial part of the defence. A young player to watch out for is Femke Liefting, the 21-year-old goalkeeper has started all matches and kept three clean sheets in seven games before the international break.
Malmö FF (Sweden)
Swedish side Malmö didn't participate in any UEFA competition last year but the Damallsvenskan club will certainly be looking to establish themselves internationally.
The team has a rather unique history. Originally established in 1970, the team enjoyed success early on, winning the first division five times between 1986 and 1994. In 2007, the women's department became independent and, after rebranding, changed its name to LdB FC Malmö and eventually to FC Rosengård. Malmö FF decided to re-introduce their own women's section in late 2019, starting out in the sixth and therefore lowest division of Swedish women's football in 2020. After slowly climbing their way up, they played their first Damallsvenskan season last year, claiming third place and a European qualification spot right away.
Starting in the second Champions League qualifying round, they won the mini tournament semi-finals but then lost the final to German side Eintracht Frankfurt. The loss, however, qualified them for the second UWEC qualifying round where they faced Austrian side St. Pölten. Malmö won the tie and advanced to the round of 16.
Malmö's captain, Swedish midfielder Mia Persson, has already scored twice and provided two assists. Another crucial player is Zećira Mušović, the goalkeeper has played all 20 games before the international break and kept eleven clean sheets. Other key players include Izzy D'Aquila, who has scored six goals and three assists and Ellen Löfqvist, an important defender who has played in every game. Malmö's young player to watch is 21-year-old Tuva Skoog, who has started 15 games, playing in 19 in total and is an important presence on the pitch.
Rosenborg BK - Brøndby IF
Rosenborg BK (Norway)
After losing the first qualifying round of the Europa Cup last season, Norwegian club Rosenborg is back and has already progressed significantly further.
Established in 1972 as SK Trondheims-Ørn, the team was one of the founding members of Norway's top division. In 1984, the men's football team and all other sports were discontinued, essentially establishing a women's football only club. Between 1993 and 2003, the team won the Toppserien seven times and the Norgesmesterskapet i Fotball eight times as well as reaching the 2004/05 Champions League semi-finals. In 2020, the team fusioned with and was acquired by Rosenborg BK. Having finished in the bottom half of the table for the previous couple of seasons, they have since finished in the top three every season, even winning a ninth Cup in 2023.
Finishing third in the Toppserien earned them a place in the Europa Cup again. The team won the first qualifying round and then beat Czech side Slovan Liberec in the second to reach the round of 16.
Rosenborg’s regular captain is Norwegian Mali Næss, but as she is currently on maternity leave, the team has been led by Cille Nilsen and Synne Aunehaugen. 20-year-old Cille Nilsen has played every game so far and is the team’s top goalscorer with nine goals and one assist and 22-year-old centre-back Synne Aunehaugen has played 15 out of 18 Toppserien games before the international beak. Another key player is Rebecka Holum, who has already scored six goals and two assists and midfielder Milena Kokosz Matre has played every minute of the season, providing four assists and proving crucial to the midfield. Midfielder Ine Berre has scored three goals and six assists, establishing herself as another key player. Rosenborg has a very young squad in general, every player who has played for them this season is under 30. Two of the youngest players that everyone should keep their eyes on are 17-year-old midfielder Kama Sedahl, who has played in every game, scoring two goals and seven assists. 19-year-old midfielder Andrea Buberg is just as important for the squad, she has played every minute of the current season.
Brøndby IF (Denmark)
The Danish team's absence from UEFA competitions last year certainly made the Danish team hungry for this season of European football.
Founded in 1971, Brøndby enjoyed great success, particularly in the 2000s and 2010s. They won twelve A-Liga championships and eleven DBU Cups between 2003 and 2019 and reached the Champions League semi-finals in 2003/04, 2006/07 and 2014/15,. This established them as one of the greatest teams in Danish history. The club has also recently become the first Danish one to introduce full-time football for all first team players.
Finishing second in the A-Liga qualified them for the second UWCL round. The team lost the semi-final to Dutch side Ajax Amsterdam but won the third-place game against Czech club Slavia Praha on penalties. They then won the first Europa Cup qualifying round and faced Portuguese side Sporting CP next, winning the tie to reach the round of 16.
Brøndby's captain is Norwegian centre-back Malin Brenn. Other crucial players include goalkeeper Jalen Tompkins, who has started nine out of ten games before the international break, keeping four clean sheets, and Michaela Kovacs, who has scored twice and plays a vital role in the team's midfield. Midfielder Tilde Lindwall has scored five goals and three assists in eight games, also becoming an important player for the team. There are two Brøndby players that everyone should know about. 17-year-old attacker Mila Bischoff is their top goalscorer with seven goals and five assists, playing in all ten games, starting nine of them. 20-year-old defender Elvira Nejmann is a key player in Brøndby's defence, she has played in all ten games, starting nine of them and providing one assist.
VfL Wolfsburg - Feyenoord
VfL Wolfsburg (Germany)
Last season's Champions League quarter-finalists and German runners-up VfL Wolfsburg are ready to prove once again that they still are a team to watch.
Founded in 1973 as VfR Eintracht Wolfsburg, the team became one of the Bundesliga's founding members. Following problems in 1997, the entire team moved to Wendschotter SV, where they played one season in the second division and secured immediate promotion. A few years later, in 2003, the team fusioned with and was acquired by VfL Wolfsburg. After being relegated early on, they spent one season in the second league again, winning direct promotion once more. The team then improved significantly, winning the Bundesliga, DFB Cup and Champions League treble in 2012/13, which marked the start of a period of national dominance. They won the UWCL again the following year, going on to win six more Bundesliga titles and ten more DFB Cups by 2024. Wolfsburg has not finished outside the Bundesliga's top two since 2012.
Finishing second in the Bundesliga last season qualified them for the third UWCL round, which they lost dramatically to Inter Milan on penalties despite winning the first leg. They progressed to the second Europa Cup round, where they played Austrian side Sturm Graz, winning and advancing to the round of 16.
Wolfburg's captain, former German international Svenja Huth, has played every minute so far and provided three assists. Janina Minge is another important member of the team, having scored three goals and one assist in the club's first six games. Other key players include Ella Peddemors, who has also played every minute and has scored five goals and two assists before the international break, and Cora Zicai, a crucial winger who has scored four goals and two assists. Wolfsburg's young player to watch is 19-year-old Anny Kerim-Lindland, who has already scored two goals and two assists in just three games.
Feyenoord (Netherlands)
Torreense didn't participate in any UEFA competition last year, but this will only serve to motivate the Dutch side further.
Established in 2019, the team played in local competitions until they started playing in the Eredivisie for the first time in the 2021/22 season. They have yet to win a title, however, usually falling short to Ajax, Twente or PSV.
Finishing third in the Eredivisie saw them progress to the first Europa Cup qualifying round which they won. The team then beat Norwegian team Vålerenga to advance to the round of 16.
Captain Claire Dinkla, who is Dutch, has played every minute of Feyenoord's seven games prior to the international break. Another key player is Tori DellaPeruta who has already scored five goals and two assists, making her the team's top goalscorer. Tess van Bentem is a crucial midfielder for the club, having started six out of seven games, while Avani Brandt, a key defender, has started five games. 17-year-old defender Tatum Haverhoek should be on everyone's radar, she has played in all of the team's games so far, starting three, and has provided one assist.
