Bunny Shaw awarded No. 9 jersey for Manchester City
Former Tennessee soccer player Bunny Shaw was awarded a No. 9 jersey by Manchester City Women's Football Club.
Shaw played for the Lady Vols from 2017-18. She won the Golden Boot award for a second consecutive year with Manchester City during the 2024-25 season.
Shaw won the award for a second consecutive season despite having back-to-back campaigns end prematurely due to injury. She totaled 12 goals, while appearing in 14 top-flight matches. Shaw led the Women's Super League, averaging 0.85 goals per game. She shared the award with Arsenal's Alessia Russo.
The former Lady Vol previously wore No. 21. No. 9 is traditionally associated with a center forward or striker, a player who typically leads an attack for scoring goals.
Shaw has scored 106 goals in 91 games for Manchester City. She previously played professionally in France for Bordeaux.
Manchester City opens its regular season versus Chelsea on Sept. 6. Kickoff is slated for 8:30 a.m. EDT.
