Rolling on...

Following a wonderful celebration of the Trinity Soccer Family on Saturday evening at the residence of Vice President Chuck White and wife, Judy, we had take the field on Sunday against a much improved Hendrix side that was riding a stretch of games without a loss. Hendrix arrived onto campus on Sunday holding on tightly to the #2 spot in the SCAC Conference table. With a win, we would secure a bye into the semi-final round of the upcoming SCAC Conference Tournament in Birmingham, AL.

Trinity -v- Hendrix; W 3-0

This fixture would coincide with Senior Day for five very special young women that have persisted and persevered into one of the most remarkable and influential class of players to come the program.

Allyson Hunter-Southlake, TX; Biology

Abigail Loar-Littleton, CO; Anthropology

Kelly Watts-Lakewod, WA; International Business and Classical Studies

In their nearly four year career, they have played an integral role, both individually and collectively, in a 65-7-2 overall record. They have gone 47-2-1 in their last 50 matches, including 34 consecutive regular season wins. In conference play, they have produced a 32-3-0 record, which includes 27 consecutive SCAC wins, outscoring conference opponents 112-16. They have won two consecutive SCAC Championships, and have secured the 2011 SCAC Conference Regular Season Championship following the win at Austin College.

These incredible young women embody extraordinary values as citizens, students, and athletes. They have been catalysts in establishing a culture within the Trinity Soccer program that thrives on excellence in every facet of life. The legacy they have, and will leave behind serves as a model for those after them to follow and a standard for them to pursue.

RECORD UPDATE: Senior, Abby Loar, would score her 6th game winner in the match against Hendrix, and add an insurance goal to take over the position of Trinity All-Time Points Leader, and pull even in the All-Time Goals leader board. She has since added two more goals in the last two matches since then , as the Tigers secured victories against Huston-Tillotson (W 7-0) and Austin College (W 2-0).
