Worcester Basketball Legend Joins Athlete Advisory Board For Boston Legacy FC

WORCESTER, MA — A WNBA all-star will soon help players of Boston's new professional soccer team.

Boston Legacy FC announced the establishment of its Athlete Advisory Board on Thursday. Former Worcester Academy basketball player, Aliyah Boston, is one of the all-stars with a spot on the board.

This comes more than one month after Boston, who plays for the Indiana Fever, signed on as an investor of the soccer team.

Boston, 23, joins the star-studded board, which includes Olympian Sam Mewis and retired professional soccer player Kristine Lilly.
