SOCCER: Staley and Syring help the Bulldogs strengthen their defense and offense

BIG RAPIDS – The Bulldogs have a strong and large recruiting class arriving at Ferris and the latest additions are Brianne Staley and Katie Syring.

The Bulldogs are excited about this recruiting class that will be called upon to pay immediate dividends right off the bat.

Here are head coach Neathan Gibson’s comments about Staley and Syring.

• On Staley: I will be looking for Brianna to make things happen in the final third. She will be dangerous going to goal and with our returning attacking players will make for an exciting dangerous combination up front."

• On Syring: Katie is a hard working and talented defender who's going to give us more options defensively. She’s coming in from a club which does a wonderful job in preparing its players for the next level.

Gibson has been looking for some dynamic players, offensively and defensively, that can help the Bulldogs continue to push toward the top of the Great Lakes Intercollegiate Athletic Conference.
