New Red Stars forward Kealia Ohai sees clearly Chicago is her kind of town

Posted Jan 12, 2020
Kealia Ohai had it all in Houston. She was set to begin her seventh NWSL season with the Houston Dash and fifth as captain of the team which drafted her second overall in 2014. Plus, her three sisters lived nearby, and it’s where she met and built a home with fiancé, Texans star J.J. Watt. But in the fall, Ohai asked to be traded to the Chicago Red Stars.
