Shae Ann Harvey (born March 1, 2005) is an American professional soccer player who plays as a midfielder for Portland Thorns FC of the National Women's Soccer League (NWSL). She played college soccer for the Stanford Cardinal.
Harvey grew up in Hermosa Beach, California, the daughter of Diana and Jackson Harvey. Her sister, Maya, played beach volleyball at Stanford. Harvey played club soccer for Beach FC and Slammers FC HB Køge, earning ECNL All-American honors three times and winning the ECNL under-19 national title with Slammers in 2023. She attended Mira Costa High School, where she ran track. She committed to Stanford during her junior year. She also trained with NWSL club Angel City FC as a non-roster trialist in the 2023 preseason. TopDrawerSoccer ranked her as the No. 12 prospect of the 2023 class, part of Stanford's third-ranked recruiting class.
Harvey started every game for the Stanford Cardinal in her freshman season in 2023, playing 25 games and scoring 1 goal. She contributed to the team going undefeated in the regular season and then reaching the NCAA tournament final, where they lost 5âÂÂ1 to Florida State. She was named to the Pac-12 Conference all-freshman team, earned third-team All-Pac-12 honors, and was named in the NCAA all-tournament team. TopDrawerSoccer named her the second-best freshman in the nation.
Harvey scored 5 goals in 23 games in her sophomore season in 2024, the Cardinal's first campaign in the Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC). She scored important goals during the NCAA tournament, with a late equalizer against UConn, the decisive penalty in a shootout against Arkansas, and the opening header against Notre Dame, as Stanford returned to the semifinals, where they lost to Wake Forest.
Harvey started all 25 goals and scored 5 goals with 10 assists in her junior year in 2025, earning second-team All-ACC recognition. She co-captained the Cardinal to both the ACC regular-season and tournament titles, converting a penalty in the final shootout against Notre Dame. She then helped lead another deep run to the NCAA tournament final, losing 1âÂÂ0 again to Florida State, and was named in the NCAA all-tournament team. After three seasons in Palo Alto, she decided to turn pro and give up her remaining college eligibility.
The Portland Thorns announced on December 29, 2025, that they had signed Harvey to her first professional contract on a three-year deal. She made her professional debut as a 61st-minute substitute for Cassandra Bogere in a season-opening 1âÂÂ0 win over the Washington Spirit on March 13, 2026.
Harvey was called into training with the United States under-15 team in 2019. After the youth national team went on hiatus during the COVID-19 pandemic, she returned to train with the under-17 team in 2021. She scored four goals in a record win against Grenada at the 2022 CONCACAF Women's U-17 Championship. She played in four games for the tournament victors but did not make the roster for the subsequent 2022 FIFA U-17 Women's World Cup. She played three games for the under-20 team at the 2023 CONCACAF Women's U-20 Championship, placing second to Mexico. She played friendlies for the under-19 team against Spain in 2024.
