Jenna Bike

Jenna Bike (born June 1, 1998) is an American professional women's soccer player who plays as a forward for the Chicago Red Stars in the National Women's Soccer League (NWSL).

Bike is a native of Trumbull, Connecticut, where she played youth club soccer.

Bike attended St. Joseph High School, where she played girls' soccer for the St. Joseph High Cadets. In her sophomore season in 2013, Bike scored 40 goals and was credited with 35 assists, and the Cadets reached and won the Connecticut state championship match. In her senior season, Bike scored 25 goals, and the Cadets won the Class L state championship again with a 22–1 record. She scored a goal and was credited with an assist in the Cadets' 2–0 Class L finals match victory against Suffield High School, completing her high school career with 79 goals and 45 assists, both school records.

Bike was named National Soccer Coaches Association of America national high school player of the year on December 8, 2015, and a Gatorade Connecticut Player of the Year twice.

In November 2022, Bike was inducted into the Connecticut Girls' Soccer Coaches' Association Hall of Fame.

In 2016, Bike began playing NCAA Division I women's soccer for the Boston College Eagles as a forward.

Bike suffered an injury that kept her from playing her senior season in 2019 and required 13 months of rehabilitation, which she performed herself due to the COVID-19 pandemic. She graduated from Boston College's nursing program in 2020 and registered for the 2020 NWSL College Draft, but was not selected and returned to Boston College for two graduate seasons of play while pursuing a master's degree, then a doctorate degree, in nursing practice. She also worked at Boston College as a nurse.

By the end of her career with the Eagles in 2021, Bike made 89 appearances, 88 of them starts, and played a total of 6,461 minutes. She scored 18 goals and was credited with 15 assists, and was named the team's captain for her final two seasons.

In 2022, NWSL club NJ/NY Gotham FC invited Bike to its open tryouts, and she stepped away from her doctorate program to pursue a professional soccer career.

NJ/NY Gotham FC (2022)

On February 1, 2022, Gotham named Bike to its preseason roster as a non-roster invitee. Bike trained with the team as a practice player after tryouts, then signed a National Team Replacement Player (NTRP) contract with Gotham FC on June 27, 2022. Gotham moved Bike from forward to right back, where she trained on the position with goalkeeper Michelle Betos and center back Ali Krieger, both of whom had also joined Gotham that season.

Bike debuted for Gotham on June 2, 2022, against the Chicago Red Stars. On August 5, 2022, days after the expiration of her NTR contract, Bike signed a full contract with Gotham FC in August 2022.

Gotham waived Bike in November 2022.

Chicago Red Stars (2023–)

In January 2023, Chicago Red Stars coach Chris Petrucelli contacted Bike about the team's need for a winger. The team subsequently signed Bike from the NWSL waiver wire to a two-year contract with an option for a third year, where she returned to playing as a forward.

Bike attended United States women's national under-18 soccer team training camp in 2015.

Bike has two younger sisters, Julia and Tory, both of whom play soccer.
