Congratulations Siga Appelgate on being named
One of our women's soccer players, Kayla Varner, has just been named a 2009 Adidas All-American by the National Soccer Coaches Association of America. Kayla was also named to the Far West all-region team and has been named the 2009 Nevada women's high school player of the year. If you have Kayla in class or see her on campus please congratulate her on these awards. This is a tremendous honor, as she is the only player from Nevada to be selected to either team this year, and we are all very proud of her. Kayla also gave her verbal commitment to play her college soccer at BYU this week. Thanks!
