BOULDER – Just as the 2022 season closes out, the Colorado soccer team has turned its attention to 2023, signing seven newcomers for the fall on Wednesday.
Jamie Campbell (Newbury Park, Calif.), Kyla Celayta (Grand Junction, Colo.), Claire Curran (San Diego, Calif.), Grace Thao (Irvine, Calif.), Angelina Moschetti (Irvine, Calif.), Hope Leyba (Phoenix, Ariz.) and Faith Leyba (Phoenix, Ariz.) all put pen to paper and officially became Buffaloes.
“With us losing seven talented seniors, it was vital that we brought in a class that can compete right away,” head coach Danny Sanchez indicated. “This incoming group can. They all come from super competitive club environments. They have all excelled on a national stage and have all the attributes to push our soccer program to the next level. We are excited to get them to Boulder this summer!”
