Mewis then joined FA Women's Super League club Manchester City, winning the FA Cup in 2020. She played for the Kansas City Current before retiring in 2024 due to a long-term knee injury.

After playing extensively at the youth level, Mewis debuted for the United States senior national team while in college in 2014.

[edit]

Born in Weymouth, Massachusetts, to Robert and Melissa Mewis,[2] Samantha grew up in Hanson, Massachusetts, where she attended Whitman-Hanson Regional High School and played on the soccer team, tallying 77 goals and 34 assists during her time there.[4] She grew up with her older sister Kristie, playing soccer for numerous youth teams, including club team, Scorpions SC, as well as the under-17 and under-20 United States national teams.[5][6][7] Mewis earned Parade All-American honors twice during her high school years and was named the National Soccer Coaches Association of America national player of the year in 2010.[8] In 2011, she was named Gatorade Massachusetts Girls Soccer Player of the Year for the second time after receiving the accolade previously for 2009–10.[9][10] The same year, she was named ESPN RISE All-American after scoring 30 goals and serving 8 assists during her senior year.[11]

UCLA Bruins

[edit]

In her first year, Mewis was second on the team in scoring with six goals and seven assists, only bested by current United States women's national soccer team member Sydney Leroux and was named to the Pac-12 All-Freshman Team. Due to national team commitments, Sam missed the first six games of her second season, but finished the year with three goals and three assists in 16 games.[2] In her junior year, Mewis helped UCLA win the Pac-12 championship on the way to its first NCAA championship.[12] In December 2014, she was named the winner of the 2015 Honda Award for soccer by the Collegiate Women Sports Awards (CWSA).[13][14]

Club career

[edit]

Pali Blues

[edit]

In 2013, Mewis signed with the Pali Blues in the W-League.[15] The team won the western conference title[16] as well as the national championship in July 2013.[17]

Western New York Flash, 2015–2016

[edit]

Mewis was selected fourth overall by the Western New York Flash in the 2015 National Women's Soccer League entry draft.[18] She started all 20 regular-season games for the Flash, scoring 4 goals and providing 4 assists to share the top of the team scoring leaderboard with Lynn Williams.[19] On September 9, 2015, the NWSL announced that Mewis was selected as a finalist for NWSL Rookie of the Year for the 2015 season, along with Sofia Huerta and the eventual winner, Danielle Colaprico.[20][21]

In the 2016 season, Mewis missed several games as she was away training with the U.S. WNT in preparations for the 2016 Summer Olympics. The Western New York Flash finished fourth in the standings and qualified for the play-offs. In the semi-final, Mewis scored a goal in the 16th minute helping the Western New York Flash to upset the Shield winning Portland Thorns. In the NWSL Championship game Mewis once again scored a goal. The Championship game went to penalties, Mewis missed her penalty but the Flash went on to win the Championship, winning the penalty shootout 3–2.[22]

North Carolina Courage, 2017–2020

[edit]

It was announced on January 9, 2017, that the Western New York Flash was officially sold to new ownership, moved to North Carolina,[23] and rebranded as the North Carolina Courage. Mewis had a very successful 2017 season, as she appeared in every game for the Courage, tallying 6 goals and 3 assists. She was named to the NWSL Best XI and was a finalist for the NWSL Most Valuable Player Award.[24]

Mewis missed the beginning of the 2018 season as she was recovering from a knee injury. She appeared in 17 regular season games, as the Courage won their second consecutive NWSL Shield. In the play-offs, Mewis was in the starting line-up for the semi-final match against the Chicago Red Stars and scored a goal in the 86th minute. North Carolina won 2–0 and advanced to their second straight championship game. She played all 90 minutes in the NWSL Championship game as the Courage defeated the Portland Thorns 3–0. Mewis had now won three NWSL Championships.[25]

Due to her participation in the 2019 World Cup, Mewis only appeared in 12 regular season games for the Courage in 2019.[26] North Carolina won the NWSL Shield for the third consecutive season. They advanced to the final after defeating Reign FC in the semi-final. Mewis scored a goal in the championship game as North Carolina defeated the Chicago Red Stars 4–0 to win their second consecutive NWSL Championship.[27]

With the 2020 season affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, Mewis took part in the 2020 NWSL Challenge Cup, making five appearances and scoring one goal as North Carolina topped the standings in the preliminary round but were eliminated in the first knockout round by #8 seed Portland Thorns FC.[28][29]

Manchester City, 2020–2021

[edit]

On August 10, 2020, Mewis signed with Manchester City of the English FA WSL ahead of the 2020–21 season.[30] She made her competitive debut for the club at Wembley Stadium on August 29 as a 68th-minute substitute during a 2–0 defeat to Chelsea in the 2020 Women's FA Community Shield.[31] In total, Mewis made 32 appearances and scored 16 goals including the winner against Arsenal in the semi-final of the delayed 2019–20 Women's FA Cup and again in the final as Manchester City beat Everton 3–1 in extra-time to defend their title.[32] City finished second in the league for the fourth consecutive season, this time losing out to Chelsea. Mewis was named to the FA WSL PFA Team of the Year at the end of the season.[33]

North Carolina Courage, 2021

[edit]

On May 17, 2021, Mewis rejoined North Carolina Courage.[34]

Kansas City Current, 2022–2023

[edit]

On November 30, 2021, Mewis was traded to Kansas City Current in exchange for Kiki Pickett and the No. 3 overall pick in the 2022 NWSL Draft.[35] After undergoing arthroscopic surgery following the 2021 Olympics, Mewis played in two Challenge Cup games for the Current in March 2022, but did not play for the remainder of the season.[36] She had a second knee surgery in January 2023 where cartilage donor grafts were placed in her knee, resulting in her missing the full 2023 NWSL season.[37]

Following the 2023 season, Mewis announced her long-term knee injury would result in retirement from professional soccer.[38]

International career

[edit]

Mewis was a member of the United States under-17 team that was runner-up at the 2008 FIFA U-17 Women's World Cup in New Zealand. As her sister Kristie was also a member of the team, they were the first sisters to represent the United States at a Women's World Cup. They also played together at the 2010 FIFA U-20 Women's World Cup.[39] At the 2012 FIFA U-20 Women's World Cup, Mewis helped the team win the championship after defeating Germany 1–0 in the final.[40]

After a spell out of the team, Mewis was invited back to the senior team following their success at the 2015 FIFA Women's World Cup. She continued to get regular playing time, scoring four goals in 2016 including the winning goal against Germany in the 2016 She Believes Cup that won the United States the trophy.

Mewis suffered a knee cartilage injury in a November 2017 game against Canada which sidelined her for six months, forcing her to miss the 2018 SheBelieves Cup. Mewis returned to the field for the U.S. in June 2018 in a friendly against China.[46] In September 2018 she was named to the final 20 player roster of the 2018 CONCACAF Women's Championship.[47]

On January 18, 2021, Mewis scored her first career hat-trick for either club or country in a 4–0 friendly win against Colombia. Her sister Kristie scored the only other goal.[51] Mewis was a member of the US team at the 2020 Olympic Games in August 2021, scoring one goal in their quarterfinal win against the Netherlands.[52] She and her team won the bronze medal in a 4–3 victory over Australia.

Mewis underwent knee cartilage surgeries in 2021 and 2023, resulting in an extended absence from the national team.[37] On January 19, 2024, Mewis announced her retirement from professional soccer due to her long-term knee injury.[38]
