Fletcher Named Pre-Season All-GSC And Lady Bucs Picked To Finish Second

Birmingham, AL – Christian Brothers University women's soccer senior midfielder Stacy-Jo Fletcher has been named to the pre-season All-Gulf South Conference Team and the Lady Buccaneers were tabbed to finish second in the league by the coaches of the GSC.

West Florida received six first-place and three second-place votes giving them 78 total points, just four ahead of the Lady Bucs. CBU earned four first-place, three second place and two third-place votes. Harding, Alabama-Huntsville, Montevallo, Central Arkansas, Lincoln Memorial, North Alabama, Ouachita Baptist and Delta State round out the pre-season coaches' poll. Delta State will be competing in its first season in women's soccer.

The Lady Bucs have won the last four GSC Championships.

Fletcher, a first-team All-GSC and All-South selection last season, was the lone CBU representative on the team. She scored 17 goals and had 18 assists a year ago. West Florida had five members on the team followed by Harding with three and Alabama-Huntsville with two.

The Conference also announced a change in location for it's post-season tournament as the event will move to Pensacola, FL this year with the Pensacola Sports Authority and the University of West Florida to serve as the hosts. Other changes include a new format in which first-round games will be played on November 5th with a rest day on the 6th and championships on the 7th.

The Lady Bucs begin the regular season on September 3 at Northern Kentucky. The first home contest for CBU will be September 10 at 5 p.m. against Lynn University.
