Samia McReynolds |
McReynolds, a junior defender from Evansville, Ind., was selected to the All-District VI Second Team. She currently holds a 3.75 grade point average in architectural engineering technology. Along with McReynolds, 21 other athletes, hailing from 15 regional universities, were named on either the first or second teams.
A three-year letterwinner, McReynolds started all 17 matches this season and took three shots on the year. She has been a member of the President's list (4.00 GPA) for one semester and was on the Dean's list (3.25-3.99 GPA) every other semester. McReynolds also was selected as a Conference USA Commissioner's Academic Medalist in 2001 and a member of the C-USA Commissioner's Honor Roll in 2002.
This marks the third season in a row that the Lady Eagle soccer team has produced a Verizon Academic All-District member. McReynolds' two sisters, Souhaila and Leila were selected to the teams in 2000 and 2001, respectively.
Southern Miss finished the season with a 6-10-1 overall record and a 2-3-1 conference mark.
