Soccer: Penguins Sign Two Defenders
Youngstown --
Youngstown State Head Coach
Elizabeth Bartley announced on
Thursday that Mikey McCracken and
Shannon Martig, both from West
Branch High School, have signed
National Letters of Intent to
continue their academic and soccer
careers at Youngstown State.
At West Branch, McCracken was a four-year letterwinner and
two-time team captain. In 2002
she was named to the senior all-star
team and received second-team
All-Mahoning County honors her
junior season.
Martig, a three-year letterwinner for the Warriors, was named
to the All-Ohio team, senior
all-star team, and academic all-star
team her senior season.
Shannon ranks in the top ten percent
of her graduating class.
"I am looking forward to working with both girls," Bartley
said. "They will help boost our
defense, which is an area we are
looking to develop." |
