Career

College career

As a freshman at Notre Dame, Dew started all twenty-five games at center defender for the Irish, alongside teammate and Canadian international Candace Chapman.

After an ACL injury during her sophomore year, which caused her to miss all of the 2006 NCAA postseason games, Dew came back her in her junior year to anchor the central defense, guiding freshmen Lauren Fowlkes and Julie Scheidler, and junior transfer Elise Weber, to form an impressive defense that saw a 17-game unbeaten streak in 2007.[3]

As co-captain of the team her senior year, Dew continued to be the backbone of an Irish defense that allowed just eight goals in 21 games in 2008, with 14 shutouts.[4]

National Team career

Dew was a member of the fourth-place United States U-20 women's national soccer team that played at the 2006 FIFA U-20 Women's World Championship in Russia, alongside Notre Dame teammate Brittany Bock. Carrie was called into her first U.S. U-20 National Team camp in January 2006 and was a member of the U.S. U-20 National Team that competed at the ‘06 Under-20 World Championship (Aug 17 – Sept. 3; in Moscow and St. Petersburg, Russia). She also played for the U.S. Under-17 in 2003, the Under-16 National Team in 2002 and the U-19 regional team.

Professional career

Dew was the overall twelfth pick at the 2009 WPS Draft, going to the Bay Area's FC Gold Pride in the second round, with the possibility of playing as a center midfielder, as well as defender, for the Pride.[5] She played at center defense alongside Rachel Buehler for the majority of the 2009 season. In 2010, Dew moved back up to midfield, replaced by none other than her former Notre Dame teammate Candace Chapman at center back.

She has the dubious distinction of being the first player to receive a red card in FC Gold Pride's history.[6]

Carrie joins the Sky Blue FC for her third professional season, following a WPS Championship season with the FC Gold Pride. Dew was selected by FC Gold Pride in the second round (12th overall) of the WPS Draft and started both as a midfielder and center back for the Pride. She scored her first goal as a professional on April 11, 2009 against Sky Blue FC and looks forward to scoring many more now that she’s wearing blue.
