She can finish, she makes great runs, she's an excellent passer, she can take players one-on-one and she can head the ball. There are not a lot of things she can't do, but what sets her apart is her brain. She's got an amazing soccer brain for her age and she's still one of the younger players on this team."

Gautrat would spend the rest of 2017 in and out of training camps due to nagging injuries and would sparingly find playing minutes as a late game sub. These injuries would carry over into 2018 as Gautrat was left out of the team's January camp. Gautrat would return for the 2018 SheBelieves Cup and would be used as either a starter or a substitute player through the remaining games of the first half of the year.

On May 2, 2019, Gautrat was named to the 23-player roster that would represent the United States at the 2019 FIFA Women's World Cup.
