photo Cagle on Soldner: "Mallory was our starting goalkeeper again this past season, and did a good job for us in our first season in the ACC. In our important wins last year, Mallory came up huge. She has also developed into a nice leader for our team, both on and off the field. We will look for Mallory to improve on her consistency this fall as she defends her starting goalkeeping spot."
