Early life
A native of Jacksonville, Arkansas,[1] Dulaney started playing soccer at the age of 9.[2] She played club soccer with Real Arkansas and Oklahoma Energy FC,[2] advancing to the National Premier League Finals with Real Arkansas.[3] Dulaney played two years of soccer with Cabot High School,[2] where she was a Top 5 conference player in terms of points and goals in both years.[1] She was homeschooled as a high school junior before playing one more year of high school soccer at the Jacksonville High.[2]
College career
Dulaney was signed by the Arkansas Razorbacks ahead of the 2020 college season,[2][3] but due to the COVID-19 pandemic, play did not start until 2021.[4] Dulaney kicked off her college career by playing in 12 freshman matches and registering 2 assists, both of which occurred in a game against Missouri State on February 23, 2021.[1] She doubled her appearances the following season, playing in all 24 of Arkansas' matches, including all 4 NCAA tournament games.
Dulaney missed her junior year due to injury,[1] but in her first game back, scored a goal to help the Razorbacks earn a season-opening victory over Arkansas State.[5] She repeated a similar feat the following year, scoring in Arkansas' 2024 season opener as well.[6] She was named to the SEC Second Team after her fifth year, her first such honor as a Razorback.[7] Dulaney also finished her college career as a two-time SEC Fall Academic Honor Roll honoree and a two-time SEC Preseason Watchlist member.[1]
Club career
Asheville City
In the offseason before her junior year of college, Dulaney played for Asheville City SC in the pre-professional USL W League.[8] In her 8 games of action, Dulaney scored 4 times,[9] including an 89th minute game-tying goal against the Charlotte Independence.[10] Asheville City finished 5th in the South Atlantic Division and did not move on to the playoffs.[11]
Washington Spirit
Following the conclusion of her collegiate career, Dulaney trained with the Washington Spirit as a non-roster invitee in the 2025 NWSL preseason.[12] On March 5, 2025, she signed a short-term contract with the Spirit.[13] Three days later, she was an unused substitute as the Spirit claimed the 2025 NWSL Challenge Cup with a win over the Orlando Pride.[14][15] Dulaney made her professional debut on May 24, coming into a match versus the Seattle Reign as a second-half substitute for Casey Krueger.[16] She did not make any further appearances for the Spirit before her contract expired on June 25.[17]
Dallas Trinity
Dallas Trinity FC of the USL Super League signed Dulaney ahead of its second full season of play.[18] On August 23, 2025, Dulaney made her Dallas debut in the club's season-opening victory over Spokane Zephyr FC.[19] The following week, she recorded her first professional start against Brooklyn FC.[20] It would prove to be Dulaney's sole start of the season as she went on to come off the bench in all 16 of her subsequent appearances for the Trinity.[21] She was also called on to participate in Dallas' semifinal defeat to Players' Shield winners Lexington SC on May 24, 2026.[22] On June 4, 2026, the Trinity announced that Dulaney would be departing from the club at the end of the season.[23]
