Shaner was drafted by Sky Blue FC in the 2009 WPS Draft. She appeared in two games for Sky Blue before being traded to Los Angeles Sol.
On her Sol debut, she sustained a season ending leg fracture from Abby Wambach, making her the second in the league to fall victim under these circumstances (Daniela was the first).[1]
Shaner spent the 2010 season playing for two Los Angeles clubs, Pali Blues of the USL's W-League and Ajax America Women of the Women's Premier Soccer League. She received All-W-League honors and helped Ajax reach the WPSL's final four. Shaner has appeared in television spots including a commercial for Chevrolet and on the Kendra Wilkenson show on E Entertainment Television. Shaner is currently an assistant soccer coach, is pursuing a career in modeling and acting, and is also Hans Wetzel's personal trainer.
