Rams women鈥檚 soccer team adds offence with Langille

It鈥檚 a simple fact in the sporting world; you must score to win.

Kaileigh Langille should help the 新加坡六合彩开奖直播 Agricultural Campus Rams with that next fall. The 17-year-old Stellarton resident recently committed to the Rams women鈥檚 soccer team and enrolled at the 新加坡六合彩开奖直播 Agricultural Campus for September.

Coach Jackie Fitt-Ryan couldn鈥檛 be happier.

鈥淚鈥檓 very excited to add her to the team,鈥� Fitt-Ryan said. 鈥淪he鈥檚 a very skilled player and I expect her to make an immediate impact.鈥�

The excitement is mutual for Langille, a striker who plays for both the North Nova Gryphons high school team and is a member of the XFC under-18 girls side which competes on the Nova Scotia Soccer League circuit.

鈥淚t鈥檚 going to be a lot of fun,鈥� Langille, who plans to work toward a Bachelor of Science degree for at least two years at the Bible Hill campus, said. 鈥淚 love that it鈥檚 a smaller school and it鈥檚 close to home and I鈥檓 glad that I鈥檓 going to be able to play soccer.鈥�

Langille has a knack for putting the ball in the back of the net by using speed, skill and a dogged work ethic on the pitch.

鈥淭hat鈥檚 what every coach loves to see,鈥� Fitt-Ryan said. 鈥淚 think she鈥檚 going to fit in well with the program we run.鈥�

Fitt-Ryan is especially excited about adding a dynamic striker to an attack that already includes Sian Rankin. Rankin topped the Rams and was second in the Atlantic Collegiate Athletic Association last season in goals (12) and points (24) and her 41 shots on target led the seven-team league.

In spite of Rankin鈥檚 efforts, the Rams lost a lot of close decisions due to a lack of scoring depth en route to a 3-8-1 (W-L-T) record to finish in sixth place.

But with the addition of Langille, suddenly, an area that has given the Rams problems in the past looks to be one of its strengths on paper.

鈥淚 think they can make a deadly combination,鈥� Fitt-Ryan said. 鈥淚t鈥檚 going to free both of them up on the field.鈥�

Finding Langille was easy for Fitt-Ryan, who lives in New Glasgow. The pair have played winter league soccer together and have also joined forces to coach a youth team in the Northern Nova winter program.

鈥淜nowing Jackie really helped with my decision,鈥� Langille, who has played soccer since she was a toddler, said. 鈥淪he is a good coach and I know I鈥檓 going to get a great experience out of it.鈥�
