Early life and college career

Born and raised in Ashburn, Virginia, Fox began playing soccer at age five.

She graduated one year early and entered the University of North Carolina in January 2017.[2]

North Carolina Tar Heels (2017–2020)

Fox started the first thirteen games of her freshman fall season with the North Carolina before suffering a torn ACL and missing the rest of the season. She was named to the All-Atlantic Coast Conference third team and all-freshman team.[2] In her sophomore season, due to her call-up to the USWNT in November 2018, she missed the ACC tournament semifinals and final and the first round of NCAA tournament. She returned in the third round as North Carolina made it all the way to the national final, where they fell 1–0 to Florida State.[4] Fox was named to the All-ACC first team and the all-tournament team of the NCAA championship.[2]

Fox led the team with 11 assists in the 2019 season and was named first-team All-ACC and first-team All-American. She assisted on the winning goals to Lotte Wubben-Moy and Alessia Russo in the semifinals and final respectively of ACC tournament, making the all-tournament team. She scored her first college goal in the first round of the NCAA tournament against Belmont and found her second goal to tie the game against USC in the quarterfinals but then tore her ACL for a second time in that game. North Carolina went on to win the game and reached another national final but lost to Stanford on penalties.[2][3] Fox was again named first-team All-ACC after the fall 2020 season.[5]
