FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Cairo, Sealy heading to Southern for women’s soccer

Head coach Trevor Wachsman recently announced that two more current high school seniors have announced their intentions to join the Missouri Southern women’s soccer program.

High school teammates Elise Cairo and Katelyn Sealy will join the MSSU Lions in 2005-06, Wachsman said.

Cairo, a 5-foot-7 midfielder, has been a four-year starter in soccer at Mountain View High School in Loveland, Colo. She was an honorable mention all-conference pick as a freshman and as a sophomore and earned first-team all-conference accolades as a junior.

Sealy is a four-year letterwinner also on the Mountain Lions squad. She has been a two-year starter as a defender and has been selected for the all-area team and the all-area academic team. The 5-foot-6 Sealy is a two-year team captain.

In club soccer, Sealy helped her squad to the Kick Off State Championship.

Both Cairo and Sealy have been key players in helping MVHS to state playoff appearances in each of the last three seasons.

The two newest additions join seven previous signees for the Missouri Southern State University squad. The Lions’ February signees included: Jayme Hensley (San Angelo, Texas), Christina Kleekamp (Defiance, Mo.), Nikki Llewellyn (O’Fallon, Mo.), Allison Schaughnessey (St. Louis, Mo.), Kristen Schulze (Imperial, Mo.), Megan Walker (Grapevine, Texas), and Jentri White (Tulsa, Okla.).

“The nucleus of our team will be with the freshmen and sophomores next year, but we had some spots to fill with the departure of this year’s senior class,” Wachsman said. “We’re excited to add these two players to our already strong recruiting class.”

In 2005, Wachsman’s third season at the helm, Missouri Southern will return 15 letterwinners from the 2004 squad that finished with a 10-8-2 record and was named one of the most improved teams in NCAA Division II. The Lions also turned in an 8-5-1 mark in the Mid-America Intercollegiate Athletics Association, good for third place.
