Bennett and the Reign eventually advanced to the NWSL playoffs, vanquishing Angel City FC and San Diego Wave FC before facing off against NJ/NY Gotham FC in the final. Bennett came on as a substitute in the game and was involved in a sequence resulting in opposing goalkeeper Mandy Haught receiving a red card. The Reign failed to score off of the ensuing free kick, and Gotham FC secured the title with a 2–1 win.

San Diego Wave On December 15, 2023, the Utah Royals selected Bennett with their first pick (second overall) in the 2024 NWSL Expansion Draft.

She debuted for the Wave as part of the starting lineup that played against Gotham FC in the one-match NWSL Challenge Cup. The Wave won the game, 1–0, marking Bennett's first title with San Diego. At the end of the season, Bennett was out of contract with the Wave. The club later announced that Bennett would not be returning to San Diego and would instead be exploring opportunities as a free agent. Bennett departed from the Wave with 14 league appearances and 0 goals in her lone season in San Diego.
