Career

At William Henry Harrison High School, Bugay played for her school's women's soccer team and lettered in soccer for four times. In her sophomore season, she helped William Henry Harrison to the sectional championship and was named to the HCC All-Conference Team and the all-district second team. For her junior season, she was named high school MVP, received an all-state honorable mention, and was named into the all-district first team. Senior year, she became the captain of the team.[2]

College

Bugay played for the Marquette Golden Eagles women's soccer team[4] as a redshirt athlete. She started her collegiate career in 2015, a year after her first year in Marquette University as an academic freshman.[2] In the 2017 season, now a redshirt junior, Bugay played a team-high of 1,871 minutes and started in all 21 matches as a holding midfielder.[5] She is considered as a key player for Marquette and earned the nickname "Ry Boo Boo Glue" from her coach due to how she keeps the college team "together".[6]

International

Following her 2017 season with Marquette, Bugay was invited to participate in an initial identification camp organized by the Philippines women's national football team in November 2017.[4] She made it into the final-23 player roster for the 2018 AFC Women's Asian Cup.[7][8]

Bugay played for the Philippines at the 2023 FIFA Women's World Cup in Australia and New Zealand. She secured a place in the roster despite having to pursue her medical studies at the same time.[9] She was listed as a midfielder in the roster.[10] She announced retirement from competitive football in September, 2023.[11]
