photo Cagle on Owens: "Ashley redshirted for us last fall and I think it was a terrific decision both for her and our program. We felt like she could improve immensely under the watchful eye of Erin Emenalo (goalkeeper coach). Even when Ashley was not on the field, her presence and leadership were noticeable throughout the fall. We think this will help her compete for the starting goalkeeping spot this next season. We expect big things from Ashley throughout her four remaining years here."
