Peyton, our 17 year old rising star discovered MML through her family who have a rich history in the sport. She decided to give it a go and her potential is undeniable! We are beyond excited to watch her grow and flourish

In 2000, Carear was the first girl in her region to play tackle football on the boys team. At that time it was NOT received well. She wantd to keep playing after but didn’t have an outlet for many years, until she found out about the WFA through an MML ad on social media a few years ago.

Sweet and driven, Dani makes the trip from Minnesota every weekend to bring her grit to the gridiron. Hockey’s her first love, but she got the skills to deliver big plays and game winning hugs. Dani’s a natural on the ice AND the field.

“Progresso” used to spend her nights out in a bar room, liquor was the only love she knew. UNTIL she was rescued and recruited by the very best, to become one feisty and ferocious MML!

Ava isn’t new to the game, she is TRUE to it! Making history in high school as the first female QB to not only play, but compete and WIN! Now, she is bringing her talents to the MML as our QB this season. We can’t wait to see her pop out and show ‘em!

“I heard about the MML by researching women football teams in the area before I got to Wisconsin.”

Tiana is in store for a phenomenal season, and we can’t wait to see her shine!!

Her journey began unexpectedly when a former player approached her at a gas station, asking if she’d be interested in playing. Intrigued, she took, the chance and joined the MML quickly embracing the game.

It was at the 2017 Milwaukee Pride Fest that “Simon” was discovered the world of women’s football. Captivated by what it stood to offer, she eagerly jointed the team for the following season, marking the start of an exciting new chapter.

“Kell Bell” is a rock solid wrecking ball with speed, strength and tenacity. She’s the perfect test for anyone who’s up for a challenge.

Effective anywhere on the field, Kell’s journey began in 2013 when she was approached in the gym and asked to play. The rest as they say, is HERstory!

2025 Captain!!!!

“I was doing a project for school about the inequality between men’s and women’s sports leagues and found a team in my area!”

Katie has always wanted to play football. After years of searching, when the MML popped up online, she seized the opportunity!

‘Wolfie’ first encountered women’s football by pure chance during her college years. One day she casually threw on a football jersey - and before she knew it she got recruited! From that moment on, everything just fell into place, unfolding into pure magic!

Recruited by her studsband who had just joined herself. “Smiley” despite not knowing much about football is proving to be a BEAST! The team colors are also a plus.

“T Dub” was introduced to the MML from her close friend and veteran player, Michaela. The two attended the same school, and now they’re taking their chemistry to the field together! We’re so excited to see what she brings to the team this season!

After reclocating across the country, Jess discovered her true outlet for growth and success with the MML. Beyond just a platform to excel, she found a sense of famliy and belonging within the team.

Jess was also a 2024 All American and is a 2025 Captain!!
