Our Women’s History Month recognition continues as we move into the 1990’s, where we are highlighting the most prolific scorer in the history of the women’s soccer program: Paige Tierney Sullivan! During her mercurial four-year career (1991-94), Paige scored 56 goals and recorded 19 assists for 131 points shattering the school records for career goals and points, while also setting marks for goals in a season (24), points in a season (58), goals in a game (5), and points in a game (10). In addition to school records, she earned All-Conference and All-Region honors three straight years and All-America in 1994. It doesn’t stop there! Paige helped lead the team to a perfect 20-0-0 mark in MIAC play, winning back-to-back league crowns and earning the program’s first ever NCAA berth in 1993, before hosting their first NCAA game in 1994!
A native of Alaska, Paige was known for wearing her trademark bandana on her head while she played!!
