Philadelphia – Drexel Women's Soccer Head Coach Ray Goon announced the signing of eight student-athletes to National Letters of Intent. All eight will be eligible to play for the Dragons in August when the 2010 season kicks off.
Melissa Brennan (Scottsdale, Az./Desert Mountain) and Victoria Troccoli (Troy, Mich./Troy) will both help to support Drexel's final line of defense in the net. Brennan made crucial penalty saves during the quarters, semis, and finals of the Arizona Class 5A Division II State Championship as she led her team to their first ever title. Troccoli has been a four-year starter in net for Troy High School while earning All-Area, All-District, and All-Conference awards.
Samantha Greenfield (Warminster, Pa./Archbishop Wood) and Christine Stevenson (Downingtown, Pa./Downingtown East) will add versatility to Drexel's midfield. Both players have garnered All-Southeastern Pa. honors during their senior years. Greenfield guided her team to a Philadelphia Catholic League and District 12 Championship while earning the PCL Most Valuable Player award. Stevenson led her team to the PIAA District 1 Championship game with a breakout senior year in which she tallied 18 goals and 20 assists.
Drexel's backline will continue to strengthen as Alessandra Mungioli (Voorhees, N.J./Bishop Eustace Prep) and Kietly Wright (Ramapo, N.J./IMG Soccer Academy, Fla./Ramapo) bring their solid defensive skills to the pitch. Mungioli was a four-year letterwinner while helping her team capture the N.J. State Championship in 2006. Wright was a member of the IMG Soccer Academy in Bradenton, Fla. before returning to Ramapo and helping her team to the 2007 N.J. State Finals. Wright is also a member of the Arsenal World Class youth soccer club.
Goon and his staff also brought in two more offensive players to add to the the depth of the midfield and front line. Jessica Sarkisian (Moorestown, N.J./Moorestown) and Andrea Stampone (North Wales, Pa./Germantown Academy) will join the team in the fall. Sarkisian,, a forward, earned New Jersey All-State honors in 2007 and 2008 while leading her team in points each of her four years. Stampone will join the front two-thirds of Drexel's offense ranging from midfield to attack. She was awarded All-Southeastern Pa. honors her senior year and All-League honors throughout her high school career.
“We are very excited about the level of talent that our entire 2010 freshman class will bring to our improving program.” said Goon. “All of these standout players will help us continue to move our program forward.”
