She made a comeback on April 5, 2025, against Brazil in a friendly match. Trinity scored in the first half of the game leading the team to a 2-0 win. But the recurrence of the back pain caused her to take a break from the game indefinitely.

The Washington Spirit shared a comment with the media outlets and said:

"Trinity is taking time away from team activities to manage her back. We look forward to her returning when she's healthy."

Washington Spirit will be facing off Gotham FC in a home game on April 26 at the Audi field but Trinity will be sitting this one out and focusing on managing her injury and recovering.
