SoccerFire ladies double up local Florida foe: The women’s squad from Florida’s Southeastern University made a short commute from their Lakeland campus over to nearby Babson Park yesterday afternoon and doubled up host Webber International University 4-2. Carnation’s Madelyn “Mad Dog” Davidson started for SEU, with the senior, like Benjamin above also a Cedarcrest grad, logging 62 minutes recording one shot on goal with no goals scored. Teammate Sarah Irurozki had a three-goal hat trick to power the NAIA Fire, who moved to 2-0 on the season outscoring their first two opponents 11-2 in those two games. Southeastern is next on the road next Wednesday night taking on Truett McConnell University in Georgia.

This is a program that as noted does produce college talent – in addition to Sadie Schaefer, Madelyn “Mad Dog” Davidson is playing her final college season with NAIA Southeastern University in Florida, and as we have told you this week, goalie Kayla Hampton has found instant success this fall at her new college program, Illinois Institute of Technology. Hampton, who graduated from CHS in 2023, transferred to the Chicago university after her former school, San Francisco’s Academy of Art, scrapped their women’s soccer program as part of an overall shutdown of their entire athletic department back in June. Also, at the community college level, defender Masyn Ribail, who graduated back in June, found a spot playing defense at Green River CC down in Auburn. So we’ll be sure to keep an eye periodically on them for you as well.

Leading off our Sunday with some cross country and soccer!
