Two Tennessee Soccer Club Alumni Advance to the NCAA Women’s Soccer Final Four

By News

Tennessee Soccer Club (TSC) is proud to celebrate two alumni who have earned a spot in the NCAA Women’s Soccer Final Four this weekend, representing two different programs and continuing TSC’s tradition of developing high-character, high-performing athletes.

Siena Elder, a TSC alum and current student-athlete at Emory University, will compete tonight as her team continues its remarkable postseason run. Sienna has been a key contributor throughout the year and has emerged as a leader during Emory’s push toward a national title.

“Making it to the final four has definitely been the highlight of my soccer career because of the high-level, intense competition, hard work and grit we have had to put in to get to this point. Being apart of the group of only 4 teams to get this far is truly a once-in-a-lifetime, incredible, accomplishing feeling. I joined TSC my sophomore year of high school, and joining TSC significantly developed me as a player and helped me land my spot on the Emory Women’s Soccer team. I owe a big thanks to my teammates and coaches during my time at TSC who shaped me into the player I am today.”

Also competing on the national stage is Breahn Fisher, who will take the field with TCU in the NCAA semifinals on Sunday. Her performance and consistency throughout the season have helped propel her team into one of the most high-profile matches in college soccer.

““TSC allowed me to meet my best friends and be in an environment where my coaches and teammates pushed me to be better everyday. TSC prepared me very well to be the player I am today. Being in the final four is an unmatched feeling. I’m very grateful to be here with my best friends and get to do what I love. Everything happens for a reason and hard work always pays off.”

“These moments make our entire club proud,” said Girls ECNL Director, Ronnie Woodard. “To have two former TSC players competing in the Final Four at the same time shows the strength of our athletes, the support of our families, and the passion of our coaching staff. We’re thrilled to cheer on Breahn and Siena.”

Tennessee Soccer Club continues to support and celebrate alumni competing at all collegiate levels across the country. Seeing two former players reach this stage in the same year highlights the breadth of opportunity and the lasting impact of the TSC development pathway.

CHAMPIONS! TSC Williamson 2009 Boys Showcase Lifts Tennessee Fall State Cup Championship Trophy

By News

MURFREESBORO, TN – Tennessee Soccer Club’s Williamson 2009 Boys Showcase, coached by Jack Theriot, claimed the Tennessee State Soccer Association (TSSA) Fall State Cup Championship on Sunday, defeating Emerald Bayern Munich 2009 Boys 2-1 in the U16 final at Richard Siegel Soccer Complex.

TSC opened the scoring in the 22nd minute with a rocket from 30 yards out to take a 1-0 lead.  Emerald tied the score in the 37th minute, but TSC responded just after halftime earning a penalty kick and a 2-1 lead that it would take to the final whistle and celebration.

The victory marks Coach Theriot’s first State Cup title since 2011, when he led the TNFC ’93 Girls to the championship.

“Congratulations to all of our teams who participated in the State cup final this past weekend and very special “well done” to Coach Jack Theriot and his 2009 boys Showcase team who won their first state cup championship,” said U15-U19 Boys Director Sandy Pollock.

In total, four TSC teams advanced to their respective championship matches.  In addition to the 2009 Williamson Boys Showcase championship, the Williamson 2009 Boys NPL team led by Pollock battled to a 1-1 draw through regulation and fell in heartbreaking fashion in a penalty kick shootout.  The Williamson 2014 Boys Showcase was edged in their final match as well as the 2010 Williamson ECNL RL Boys team.

In total, TSC crowned one champion, three finalists, two semi-finalists, and 4 quarterfinalists.

“Overall, we are proud of our performances on the field this fall,” Director of Soccer Stephen Jordan said.  “It was brilliant to see Coach Jack and the boys achieve their goal and lift the trophy.  We are excited as we move into the next phase of the year as the older girls begin their seasons and look forward to continued successes.”

Ronnie Woodard Named US U-16 Girls’ National Team Head Coach for England Friendlies

By News

ATLANTA (Oct. 22, 2025) – The U.S. Under-16 Girls’ National Team will travel to England from Oct. 22-31 for a training camp and games at St. George’s Park, England’s National Training Center, located about 120 miles north of London.

The USA will face its counterparts from England on Oct. 28 and Oct. 31, giving this age group valuable international competition.

All players in this camp were born in 2010 and represent the core of the team that will compete to qualify for the 2027 FIFA U-17 Women’s World Cup. As this will be Katie Schoepfer’s cycle, and she is currently in Morocco coaching at the 2025 FIFA U-17 Women’s World Cup, Ronnie Woodward will be the head coach for this camp and matches.

This year marks the beginning of FIFA’s annual staging of FIFA U-17 WWC — as opposed to biannually as it was in the past — and the tournament will be held in Morocco for the next five years.

The camp is part of the Federation’s continued focus on the U.S. Way philosophy, which emphasizes increased programming for Youth National Teams to create more opportunities for young players to advance through the pathway to the senior National Team with the goal of representing their country at a world championship.

FRANKLIN, TN – The Tennessee Soccer Club 2009 Williamson Girls Showcase team advanced to the United States Youth Soccer Presidents Cup National Semifinals at the Tournament Sportsplex of Tampa Bay in Tampa, FL this July.
