Katherine Nicole "Katie" Stengel is an American soccer player who plays as a forward for the Washington Spirit of the National Women's Soccer League and the United States U-23 women's national team. She attended Viera High School in Viera, Florida. She previously played for Bayern Munich, Wake Forest University and the United States Under-20 team that won the 2012 FIFA U-20 Women's World Cup and the 2012 CONCACAF Women's U-20 Championship. Stengel completed her college career as the highest scoring player in Wake Forest history with 50 goals in 75 games, and she was a four-time All-ACC honoree and a three-time All-America, becoming in 2011 the first Wake Forest player to be named first-team All America.
With the United States, she won the 2012 Under-20 World Cup, appearing in four games and scoring three goals. In March 2014, she received her first full national team call-up from head coach Tom Sermanni.[1]
In January 2014, Stengel skipped the 2014 NWSL College Draft and instead joined the Los Angeles Blues of the since-disbanded W-League.[2] In June 2014, Stengel joined Frauen-Bundesliga side Bayern Munich.[3] She helped Bayern win the 2014–15 Frauen Bundesliga title, leading the team with nine goals.[4]
In December 2015, Stengel signed with the Washington Spirit.[2]
Her younger sister Jackie plays for North Carolina State University and her father Scott played for the Air Force Academy.[5]
