The Cape Breton Capers women's soccer team has lost back-up goalkeeper Mara Kremenovic to the Illinois State University Redbirds of NCAA.
Kremenovic, a rookie in 2009, was number two behind Jessica MacDermid. MacDermid has used all her eligibility, leaving the Capers without a goalkeeper.
The Capers have yet to announce their 2010 recruiting class, although it's a good bet it will now include a goalkeeper or two.
The Capers have been one of the stingiest AUS teams over the past several years, conceding only six in 2009 and seven in 2008.

Dalhousie Women Add Eight Recruits
--By Dylan Matthias
The Dalhousie Tigers women's soccer team will be a bit deeper come September. Head coach Jack Hutchison has added eight new players.
Headlining the list is versatile defender Andie Vanderlaan and attacking wingers Bianca Jakisa and Sheena Cayer.
Hutchison has also added defensive midfielders Stacey DeLuca, Madie Greig, and Sam Claude. Daphne Wallace, a striker, and central midfield player Kayla Merriman round out the group.
"They're not being thrown into the fire," says Hutchison. "The recruits coming in this year will really have the benefit of not being pressured into major minutes."

St. FX add Nine Recruits
-By Dylan Matthias
Following closely on the heels of UPEI's large recruiting class, the X-Women have added nine new players.
The new recruits compliment an already defensive team.
The recruits include Maris Miller (GK), Stephanie Venedam (FB), Vanessa Smykalski (FB), Victoria Penner (CB), Melanie Sunada (WM), Shannon Venedam (WM), Alix Bruch (CM), and Shannon McPhee (AM).
There isn't much info available on these players--ever where youth soccer stats exist, it can be hard to gauge the level of competition. If you happen to be familiar with any of these players, consider leaving us a comment.

UPEI Recruiting Left, Right, and Centre
--By Dylan Matthias
UPEI have added no less than eight players already, including two strikers.
Maggie McSweeney and Ali Goodman will give AUS leading scorer Tessa Roche a little help up front.
Last year, Tessa Roche scored 13 of UPEI's 20 goals. Kinza Baker was the team's second-leading scorer, with three.
Also joining them are (deep breath): Sarah Stanley (M), Katie O'Brien (M), Patty Trainor (M), Melissa Burke (W), Lynn Symington (D), and Hilary Thompson (G).
