Rachell Sloss Transfers to CSU East Bay

Posted On June 4, 2012 by PUSC

“Starting in the Fall of 2012, I received a scholarship to play at
 California State University at East Bay as a defensive center
midfielder under former CSU East Bay player Amy Gerace. I am a 
sophomore transfer from Sierra College, and I’m excited for this 
opportunity to play at a higher level. What I loved most about East
 Bay was the competitiveness of the soccer program and the quality of 
the school’s psychology program. The campus and soccer field were very 
impressive as well, and I look forward to making an impact on their soccer program.

 My journey with competitive soccer and playing one year for Jason
 Gantt at Sierra College have both shaped me into the player I am 
today, and made it possible for me to be a part of a more competitive 
soccer program. I first came to Placer United as a member of the U14 Gold
 team. My experience with the club has impacted my life in 
indescribable ways. Placer United taught me the value of teamwork,
coachability, and respect for the game. I would like to thank my 
teammates, and coaches Gene Duchateau, Todd Decarlo, Jason Gantt, and
 Ron Benjamin for helping me to become a better soccer player. I would 
especially like to thank Ron Benjamin for pushing me to my limits and
 for being incredibly supportive through all obstacles I faced in my 
soccer career. I will never forget all the wonderful memories and
 accomplishments I made with my teammates throughout my journey with
 Placer United and in my first year of college ball. I thank you all
 for helping me to reach this next big step in my career!
