Women’s Soccer Returns Veteran Group for 2015 Season

The 2015 College of Charleston women’s soccer campaign is underway. The Cougars reported to preseason camp on Aug. 4, 2015, under the guidance of sixth-year head coach Christian Michner.

Women’s soccer opens the season on Aug. 21, 2015.

“I am very excited to get preseason training started and have everyone back from the summer,” said Michner, who is assisted on the sidelines by associate head coach Tracy Chao and assistant coach Michelle Wilson. “We are returning a veteran group from last season with a lot to prove that will be intertwined with many young, talented players. We have an abundance of competition throughout every position that I believe will turn into a great strength for us as the season progresses. We can’t wait to play some high-quality opponents and pack the house for our amazing fans here at Patriots Point.”

The College returns 13 players who played 450 minutes or more during the 2014 season. Twelve newcomers also have joined the roster.

The Cougars will host the Charleston Nike Classic to open regular-season play, facing Miami (Fla.) on Friday, Aug. 21, 2015, at 7:30 p.m. at Patriots Point.
