Marquette welcomes six newcomers to 2023 women’s soccer roster
The Marquette University women’s soccer program is welcoming six newcomers for the 2023 campaign, head coach Frank Pelaez announced.
Haley Christianson (Kenosha, Wis./Bradford HS), Carly Christopher (Park Ridge, Ill./Maine South HS), Emily Fix (Gurnee, Ill./Carmel Catholic HS), Kiley McMinn (O’Fallon, Ill./O’Fallon Township HS), Capri Oliviero (Nashotah, Wis./University School) and Taylor Schad (Kiel, Wis./Kiel HS) will all arrive on campus in August and have four seasons of eligibility with the Golden Eagles.
“We are extremely excited to welcome this group to the Marquette family and can’t wait for them to arrive on campus,” Pelaez said. “This is the first recruiting class our staff has been able to watch play in person for an extended amount of time and we have really enjoyed developing relationships with each player.
“As a group, each player brings a unique skill set to the team and adds depth across a variety of positions,” he continued. “Their best soccer is ahead of them and we can’t wait for the next step in their respective careers to begin.”
The Golden Eagles finished 7-7-4 overall in 2022, including a 3-4-3 mark in BIG EAST Conference action.
