Melanie Bertrand Commits to University of Nevada, Reno

I’m really excited to be getting the opportunity to play and attend the University of Nevada Reno . One of the reasons I decided to commit there is because of their soccer program since it is very competitive and will help me grow as a player. I also really liked the campus and its location. The campus is by the mountains and is really beautiful, it’s also right next to downtown Reno . My parents will still be able to watch me play too, but I will still be far enough away to get the full college experience. I can’t be more thankful for this opportunity and I wish I didn’t have a whole other year of high school left!

Evan Hodge commits to Vermont

Evan Hodge

“I chose Vermont because it was an opportunity I couldn’t pass up. It is something new and something different, and that’s what I wanted. It is a beautiful place to go to school, and start my life. I am looking forward to playing soccer at the college level, and competing with the top players. Also, to being independent, I’m ready to grow up and start my own life. My biggest goal in college soccer is to be one of the top players in the nation, to make the All-Conference team, and to be developed to play at the next level. I’ve had 2 coaches during my soccer career that I’d like to thank, and they are: Nathan Williams and Paul O’Brien. With their knowledge and time, they have shaped me into the player I am now. Almost everything I know and have done is from them. So I’d like to thank them for developing me as a player, and as a young man. Thank you.”
