Early life[edit]

College career[edit]

Dudley made her debut for Florida State on August 17, 2023, against Texas A&M.[2] She scored her first two college goals on September 3 to help beat South Florida 5–1.[8] She scored another brace in a 3–3 draw at No. 1 North Carolina on September 24.[5] On September 29, she scored the only two goals in a shutout against Miami.[9] In the postseason, she scored in the semifinal and assisted in the final to help win the 2023 ACC tournament.[2] She scored three goals, including two game winners, through the first five rounds of the 2023 NCAA tournament.[2] In the 2023 NCAA championship game, she converted a penalty to open scoring and added an assist to help the Seminoles beat Stanford 5–1 and become undefeated national champions, and she was named the most outstanding offensive player of the tournament.[4][10] She totaled 14 goals and 9 assists in the 2023 season and was recognized as the ACC Freshman of the Year, first-team All-ACC, and first-team All-American.[2]

International career[edit]

Dudley was called into training camp with the United States national under-14 team in July 2018.[11] She trained with the combined under-18/under-19 teams in January 2023 and then the national under-20 team in April of that year.[12][13] She represented the United States the next month at the 2023 CONCACAF Women's U-20 Championship, scoring on a header 25 seconds into the first match against Panama, and finished the tournament runner-up to Mexico.[14][15]
