FORT WAYNE, Ind. -- Carroll High School seniors Hilary Powers and Kristen Sloffer signed letters-of-intent to continue their education and soccer careers at University of Saint Francis today. The pair helped the Chargers to a 14-3-1 record in 2005 and plan to make an immediate impact on head coach Ken Nuber's Lady Cougar squad in the fall.

Powers, born in Jackson, Miss., played her first three prep seasons at Bartlett High School in Memphis, Tenn., where she became one of the top scorers in the area. She earned Second Team All-Northeast Hoosier Conference honors as a senior and totaled 69 goals during her four-year varsity career.

Sloffer served as Carroll's captain last fall and anchored one of the area's top defenses. She earned First Team All-Northeast Hoosier Conference three times and ISCA All-District 2 and News Sentinel All-Area honors in 2005. She earned four varsity letters and started each of her four season at Carroll.

The USF women's soccer team opens the 2006 season Tuesday, Aug. 22, against Siena Heights University (Mich.) at Bishop D'Arcy Stadium.
