UNLV women’s soccer program welcomes pair of Las Vegas natives

LAS VEGAS – The UNLV women’s soccer program has received signed transfer commitments from Las Vegas natives Elisa Corvalan and Cali Laymon for the Fall 2024 season, head coach Jenny Williams announced.

Corvalan and Laymon join their hometown Rebels after playing two years at Robert Morris University. The duo helped lead RMU to its first Horizon League Tournament semifinal appearance in 2023.

Additionally, she gained experience at the international level following her freshman year when she was selected to train with the Chilean National Team in the spring of 2023.
