BUFFALO, NY – Junior goalkeeper Lexie Thompson has been named to the United Soccer Coaches (USC) Goalkeepers to Watch list, as announced by the organization on Friday morning.

Her 11 shutouts rank third in a single-season in program history. She also notched a career-best nine saves to lead UB to a 2-1 win at #7 Pittsburgh, the program's first win over a top 10 program.
