Four University of Mobile Women Soccer Players Honored with Post-Season Awards

MOBILE, Ala. – Four University of Mobile women soccer players were honored this week with post-season awards including senior Allison Miller who received Academic All-American honors as well as  Region XIII Second-Team honors. 

“Allison was our defensive leader on the field this season,” said UM coach Uwe Tittl.  “We will miss her leadership dearly, both on and off the field.  I wish her the very best success in life and hope that we can recruit more players like her for our program.” 

Freshman Rose Clemensen was named to the Region XIII First-Team in just her first season with the Rams.  Clemensen, a native of Stouvring, Denmark, led Mobile with 35 points (16 goals, 3 assists) and scored three game-winning goals.

“Rose was our offensive catalyst this season,” said Tittl.  “She kept us in many games because we were never out of one with her offensive explosion.” 

Also selected to the Region XIII Second-Team was senior goalkeeper Sara Cabaniss and freshman forward Kelly Baltieri.  Cabaniss started in goal for the Rams all season making 95 saves and pitching two shoutouts.  Baltieri was second on the team in goals scored with seven. 

“Sara fought through a lot of adversity this season struggling with injuries and was still able to keep us in a lot of games,” said Tittl.  “She will be a tough keeper to replace.” 

“Kelly was our most skillful player on the field.  Her skill drew a lot of double-teams and as a result other players were able to get involved in the offense and excel on the field,” said Tittl.
