Former Tennessee Lady Vols Star Mac Midgley Inks First Pro Deal with Lexington SC

The midfielder reunites with teammate Ally Brown as both aim to build on recent collegiate successes.

Mac Midgley, a standout midfielder who concluded her collegiate career at the University of Tennessee, has officially signed her first professional contract with Lexington SC.

The agreement marks a milestone for the former Lady Vols player, who earned a suite of accolades in 2025, including Second Team All‑SEC, Second Team All‑Southeast Region, and Fourth Team All‑American honors.

During her senior season she logged 1,232 minutes, ranking fourth on the team in playing time, while contributing eight goals — three of which were game‑winning strikes — and dishing out ten assists.

Midgley will reunite with Ally Brown, a fellow former Tennessee teammate who helped Lexington SC capture the Gainbridge Super League championship in May, adding a familiar chemistry to the roster.

The duo joins a small group of recent Tennessee alumni now playing in the Gainbridge Super League, underscoring the program’s growing influence on the professional soccer pipeline.

A Reunion That Sparks Optimism

The partnership between Midgley and Brown is expected to bring a dynamic blend of creativity and defensive tenacity, qualities that were evident during their collegiate successes.

Both players have been lauded for their contributions to Tennessee’s resurgence in women’s soccer over the past four years, a period that saw the program capture multiple SEC titles and achieve its highest national rankings in school history.
