It received the American Playwriting Foundation's inaugural Relentless Award in 2015, and was a New York Times Critic's Pick. The play won the 2017 Obie Award for Ensemble work.

The Economist reviewer wrote: "She has penned an absorbing portrait of female adolescence in The Wolves". The play was a finalist in 2015–16 for the Susan Smith Blackburn Prize, a runner-up for the Yale Drama Series Prize, and a finalist for the 2017 Pulitzer Prize for Drama. The Pulitzer Prize committee wrote: "For a timely play about a girls’ high school soccer team that illuminates with the unmistakable ping of reality the way young selves are formed when innate character clashes with external challenges."
