The Greensboro College women’s soccer team established a program mark for wins during a year that produced a 14-4-1 overall record.

The Pride broke the mark with a 3-0 win over NCWC in the first round of the USA South conference tournament. GC advanced to the semifinals before losing a heartbreaker to CNU, 1-0, in overtime in Fayetteville, N.C.

Senior Ashley Cabral was named the conference's player of the year. She led the USA South in both points and goals. Cabral set a Pride record with 26 goals (second in the nation), including 6 game-winners, and was named All-USAS for her fourth consecutive season. She ended her career with 109 points (47 goals, 15 assists), which places her second all-time.

GC’s standout season was highlighted by several dominating victories and nine USA South All-Conference selections. GC tied Elite Eight Lynchburg, set 9 individual records and 7 team single season marks in 2007, including most points (181) and best goals against average (0.67).

Sophomore defender Tessa Hall also was named first team all-conference. She dished out a USA South record 19 assists on the season. Hall also scored three goals and was named the conference’s defensive player of the week in mid-October. Goalkeepers Shana Saganich and freshman Katie Allegro shared time between the pipes for The Pride.

“This team’s performance far surpassed the expectations I had at the beginning of the season,” said Head Coach Franco Bari. “It was a combination of the experience of the returning players and the open-mindedness and intensity of the freshman class that made us successful.”
