Young women are coming from far and wide to join the team.
Defender Jessica Haidet (Atlanta, GA - Pace Academy) served as the NASA-Tophat Soccer Club team captain each year since 2012 and has attended a number of U.S. Soccer National Training Centers.
Forward Natalie Laser (Glencoe, IL - New Trier HS) led her club team (FC United) in goals for four straight years and earned all-state honors last year. She is the younger sister of USC men's tennis redshirt junior David Laser.
Midfielder Samantha Trinceri (Colorado Springs, CO - Discovery Canyon HS) has served as Colorado Storm team captain for five years and led the squad to four Northwest Conference Mountain Division championships.
Midfielder Arlie Jones (Las Vegas, NV - Bishop Gorman HS) is a member of the U-20 U.S. Youth National Team after being named the Tournament MVP at the U-18 International Cup in 2016.
Jones' club teammate Tara McKeown (Newbury Park, CA - Newbury Park HS) is a forward/defender for the U-20 U.S. Youth National Team as well. McKeown was named the Los Angeles Daily News Soccer Player of the Year in 2015-16.
The Trojans also signed goalkeeper Emily Cuthbert (Encinitas, CA - La Costa Canyon HS), who helped lead her team to the U.S. Youth Soccer National Title in 2015 and earned the Golden Glove, given to the top goalkeeper in the tournament.
These six players join a Trojan squad that went 19-4-2 last season en route to its second national championship. The 2017 Trojans kick off their season this August.
