The former Second Team All-Conference selection provided two assists in Friday's 7-1 win over Jessup, as they improved to 5-0-1 in PacWest play. "Players like Sloane dig deep for the team, they are eager to do the dirty work it takes to be successful against talented teams," said CUI women's soccer coach
Chris Gould. "We are fortunate enough to have players who can also have the same mentality in the attack. Our group is not afraid to roll their sleeves up and get to work."
