    Coach Falor's Comments
     "Rachel is a sound wing defender who will enhance our ability to keep the ball and help us build out of the back. She's tactically smart and plays well in a zonal system. I expect that she will challenge for minutes early on in the season and add a calming influence to our backline when on the field."
