(January 15, 2010) Former WCUSC player Becky Edwards was taken as the 12th overall player in the 2010 Women’s Professional Soccer (WPS) draft by FC Gold Pride (CA).  Joining Edwards in the WPS draft were her WCUSC Predators’87 teammates Jill Hutchinson and Mallori Lofton-Malachi.  Hutchinson (30th overall) and Lofton-Malachi (39th overall) were both drafted by the Atlanta Beat.  Lofton-Malachi was then traded to the Philadelphia Independence. Congratulations to Becky, Jill, & Mallori; WCUSC wishes them best of luck as they start their professional soccer careers this spring.

A joint Penn Fusion 95 Boys / WCUSC Predators Boys team embarked on an exciting tour of England this past August. This ”once in a lifetime” trip allowed the boys the opportunity to visit the professional academies of Tottenham Hotspurs FC, Reading FC, Leicester City FC, Everton FC and Sheffield United FC. When at the academies the team competed against some of the best youth talent Europe has to offer along with training sessions delivered by top academy coaches.

WCUSC congratulates Courtney McKee (Spartans’89G) on being named the Towson University Women’s Soccer Rookie of the Year. McKee was the only freshman to play in all 19 games and started 10 games this past fall as a Towson Tiger. "First impressions were important and I wanted to come in to my first college camp being physically fit," said Courtney. "I knew these players could be bigger, stronger and more experienced, but it was important to me that I be able to sustain my fitness during our camp and for the season."
