Denver Summit FC Signs NWSL Champion Colorado Product Jordan Baggett

Denver Summit FC announced today the signing of Jordan Baggett. The Colorado product, NWSL Champion and the 2018 Pac-12 Midfielder of the Year joins Summit FC ahead of the club’s inaugural season in 2026. Baggett brings championship experience to Summit FC’s midfield and returns to her home state of Colorado to continue her professional career.

“I’m thrilled to join Denver Summit FC and return to my home state,” said Baggett. “This club’s vision, energy, and commitment to excellence really stood out to me. I’m excited to get on the field, help build a winning culture, and contribute to the team’s success from day one.”

Baggett, 29, played her collegiate career at Stanford University, where she was a 2017 NCAA College Cup champion, 2018 Pac-12 Midfielder of the Year, and MAC Hermann Trophy finalist. She was selected 3rd overall in the 2019 NWSL Draft by the Washington Spirit. Since turning professional, Baggett has played in the NWSL for the Washington Spirit (2019–2023) and Racing Louisville FC (2023–2024).

“Jordan is a versatile midfielder with experience at the highest levels of the NWSL,” said Curt Johnson, General Manager of Denver Summit FC. “Her professionalism, soccer intelligence, and competitive drive make her an ideal addition to our squad as we prepare for our first season. We’re thrilled to welcome another Colorado product to our team.”

During her time with Washington, Baggett made 42 appearances and scored five goals across all competitions. She was a member of the Spirit’s 2021 NWSL Championship-winning squad, appearing in three matches that season before an injury. After joining Racing Louisville in April 2023 via trade, Baggett made 16 appearances (7 starts) and tallied two goals and an assist, including the opener in a 2–0 victory over the Chicago Red Stars. She continued with Racing in 2024, making three appearances (1 start) across all competitions.

Internationally, Baggett has represented the United States at the U-20 and U-23 levels and received her first senior national team call-up in December 2019.

Baggett has signed a one-year contract for the 2026 season.
