Aviana Owings is a 2027 goalkeeper for TopHat GA Gold 08/09, the 2026 Girls Academy U17 National Champions. Based in Atlanta, Georgia, she is an aggressive goalkeeper who plays quickly off her line, attacks 1v1 situations, and uses her distribution to start attacks.
Aviana progressed from TopHat’s lowest competitive level to its highest over five years. She joined SCCL 2 as a walk-on in 2021, then earned promotions through SCCL 1, SCCL Club, DPL, and Girls Academy (GA) Navy. She began training with GA Gold in 2025, shared goalkeeping duties during Gold’s 2026 Champions Cup and Girls Academy U17 National Championship runs, and became the team’s full-time starting goalkeeper for the 2026–27 season.

Aviana plays aggressively off her line and is comfortable challenging attackers in 1v1 situations. Her game is built around quick decision-making, shot stopping, closing space, and turning possession into transition opportunities through long distribution. She is at her best when she can play proactively rather than remain anchored to her goal line.
