All seven signees come from the high school ranks and include four players hailing from Texas, a pair of international recruits and a Missouri native. The group is strong with players who have youth national team experience and who have played with high-level club teams.

"We're very excited about our 2018 class. This group of student-athletes should be among the most talented that we have assembled in recent years," Carmichael said. "We have addressed some needs and also added some tremendously gifted athletes to our squad. It's a nice mix of U.S.-based players and two very experienced international players. And each of these young women displays many of the attributes that we feel will enhance our program on and off the field."

Hausman has starred for Classic Elite Soccer Academy ECNL for six years and was a key part of a team that qualified for the ECNL National Finals in 2017.

Carmichael on Hausman: "Hallie is a terrific goal scorer, a very athletic forward who has a strong physical presence and will come in and add some competition to our front line. If she can translate her goal scoring exploits from the high school to the college level, we'll have a really good forward."

Ally Jackson, MF, Allen, Texas (D'Feeters ECNL) – A three-time all-district performer for Allen High School entering her senior season, Jackson was also the District 6-6A Midfielder of the Year and a first-team all-district selection as a junior after scoring 13 goals.
