Louisa Ibarra: October's Zueike Female Athlete of the Month
Congratulations to Louisa Ibarra of Blazers Women's Soccer on being selected the CMU Zueike Female Athlete of the Month for October. The versatile midfielder and defender continued her relentless play for the Blazers this month, often featuring in the attack for the team as well.
After bursting onto the MCAC scene for the 2023-24 season, Ibarra was back at it this year with the Blazers, continuing her upward trend of dominant play. Often tasked with defending the opposition's top threats, Ibarra featured both as an outside midfielder, where she could collect and distribute to the team's strikers, or as a fullback, where she would shut down a competitor's advance. Though stats don't always do a player of her position justice, Ibarra also featured heavily in the Blazers attack as one of the leaders in shots on goal for the team, which hints at the quality of ball she can produce and the ability to create offensive threats. Her in-game impact was noted during the team's MCAC playoff appearance, as Ibarra was named player of the match for the Blazers in their semi-final matchup with rivals Providence Pilots.

Kalyssa Wasylik: September's Zueike Female Athlete of the Month
Congratulations to Kalyssa Wasylik of Blazers Women's Soccer on being selected the CMU Zueike Female Athlete of the Month for September. The veteran winger has made a triumphant return to the outdoor pitch this fall.
After taking the outdoor season off last autumn but returning to the squad for the indoor futsal season, Kalyssa Wasylik looks to have regained her form on the turf, using her speed and skill on the ball to give the opposition defenders fits throughout the first half of the MCAC schedule. The Blazers' leading point-getter sits just ahead of rookie teammate Sumeet Brar in the conference statistical leaders chart, both of whom have tallied two goals on the season so far. Wasylik has shown a proficiency of creating scoring chances from open play, cutting in from the wing on the dribble for a chance on goal, or creating on through balls to teammates in space.

Blazers WSC Save Big Signing Wyatt for Last
The CMU Women's Soccer program is very pleased to announce the commitment of Natalie Wyatt for the 2024-25 MCAC season. The 2023 Glenlawn grad is excited to get back into competitive game action with CMU, and will look to backstop the Blazers throughout this year's campaign.
Joining her fellow former Glenlawn Lion, Juliana Millan, Wyatt is also transferring to CMU after a year spent studying elsewhere, but coming back to competitive soccer has proven too strong a call to ignore for the experienced keeper. While she played for Glenlawn her two varsity seasons, her extensive experience comes more from the club side of the game.
