Not Just Football; UCLA Women's Soccer Brings In Outstanding Class On NSD

by Achilles on Feb 3, 2011 2:13 PM PST

Bruins Nation received an email today from Will Exline of TopDrawerSoccer.com. Writes Will:

With National Signing Day wrapped up, UCLA’s Women’s Soccer team got 7 Top 100 commits, more than any other school in the nation, including 3 of the Top 10 players

The email included a link to this article which contains the following:

The UCLA women made out with seven of our 2011 Top 100 players, the most of any team in the country, including: Samantha Mewis, Kylie McCarthy, Sarah Killion, Abby Dahlkemper, Megan Oyster, Courtney Proctor and Caprice Dydasco.

According to the player ratings on that site, that's six five star players and one four star player. Mewis, McCarthy and Killion are all rated in the national top ten (nine, actually).

At this writing, there is nothing on the official UCLA site about the soccer class.

And this all happened even though the players knew Ellis had stepped down

That’s encouraging for the program going forward. Of course, recruiting is only one aspect of a successful program, but it’s all we have so far to evaluate the post-Ellis era and it’s gone really well. Hopefully Snow can keep it going.
