Clemson recruit Layne St. George wins Washington鈥檚 Gatorade award
SEATTLE (BVM) — Due to her club soccer commitments, Layne St. George played only one season of high school soccer, and it was a brief one, but the 2021 Holy Names Academy graduate made the most of it.聽
On Tuesday, the 5-foot-6 defender was named the Gatorade Washington Girls Soccer Player of the Year after she led the Cougars to a 7-0 record in what was a shortened spring season. St. George anchored a Holy Names defense that posted five shutouts and allowed just three goals in seven matches.聽
鈥淟ayne St. George is a truly special player,鈥� Holy Names Academy head coach Julianna Sackeyfio said in a . 鈥淪he makes big plays when needed, and her consistency at helping us keep the ball and build into the attacking third has been nearly unstoppable.鈥�
Since entering high school, St. George has played club soccer for Seattle鈥檚 Reign Academy, a U.S. Soccer Development Academy. She鈥檚 also a member of the U.S. Soccer under-17 women鈥檚 national team player pool and is ranked by TopDrawSoccer.com as the No. 65 recruit in the Class of 2021. Last November, St. George signed a national letter of intent to play college soccer at Clemson University beginning this fall.聽
Signed, sealed, delivered.
