Dasia Cameron Torbert (born January 17, 2002) is an American professional soccer player who plays as a midfielder for USL Super League club DC Power FC. She played college soccer for the UCLA Bruins and the Georgia Bulldogs.

Early life

[edit]

Born in Lawrenceville, Georgia, Torbert grew up in the nearby town of Buford.[1] She played youth soccer for NASA Tophat, where she scored 13 goals in 2020 to help Tophat earn recognition as the highest-ranked club in the United States.[3] In her one season of soccer for Mountain View High School, she recorded 22 goals and 11 assists.[1]

College career

[edit]

UCLA Bruins

[edit]

Torbert played her first stint of college soccer for the UCLA Bruins. She sustained a knee injury in the preseason of her freshman year, limiting her participation to only the final two matches of the spring season.[1] She would go on to total 21 appearances (9 starts) across two campaigns for UCLA,[4] contributing to a Pac-12 title in both seasons.[1][5] Her lone goal as a Bruin was the game-tying tally against Arizona State on October 3, 2021.[6]

Georgia Bulldogs

[edit]

Both of Torbert's parents are former collegiate athletes for the Georgia Bulldogs. Ahead of the 2022 season, Torbert transferred to the University of Georgia, following in their footsteps.[2] She got off to a hot start for the Bulldogs, registering goal contributions in five consecutive games early in the season.[7] After the fifth match, in which she recorded a goal and an assist against Texas A&M, she was named the SEC Co-Offensive Player of the Week.[8] However, the Texas A&M game was bittersweet, as Torbert sustained a knee injury during the match that sidelined her for nearly two years.[9] She was forced to watch on from the stands as Georgia won its first-ever SEC tournament title the following season.[10]

Torbert recovered in time to play a full season for the Bulldogs in 2024.[9] On September 15, 2024, she scored her first career brace to help Georgia beat Washington State, 4–1.[11] On November 3, she netted the game-winning goal against Texas A&M in the first round of the SEC tournament; however, the Bulldogs were eliminated by Arkansas in the following round.[12]

Club career

[edit]

Torbert spent time in the 2025 NWSL preseason as a trialist with the Chicago Stars, but she did not make the team's final roster.[13]

On September 5, 2025, USL Super League club DC Power FC announced that they had signed Torbert to her first professional contract.[14] Torbert made her pro debut on September 25, starting and playing 72 minutes in a scoreless stalemate with Lexington SC.[15] The following match, she assisted Loza Abera in a 2–2 draw with Brooklyn FC that helped extend DC Power's early undefeated run to four consecutive games.[16] On November 12, she scored her first two professional goals in a 3–1 victory over Fort Lauderdale United FC.[17]

International career

[edit]

Torbert has represented the United States internationally at four different youth national team levels:[4] U14, U16, U18, and U20.[2] In 2020, she started two of the under-18 team's three matches at the Tricontinental Cup, which was won by the Netherlands.[2][18]
