MORGANTOWN, W.Va. – Kara Blosser, a 5-8 midfielder who played two seasons at NC State, has enrolled at West Virginia University announced women’s soccer coach Nikki Izzo-Brown today.
“We are excited about the addition of Kara to the West Virginia family," says coach Izzo-Brown. “She is a very versatile player who has great experience playing in the ACC. She is a great fit to our team and can help us win championships.”
Blosser helped NC State to 15 victories over the past two seasons, appearing in 37 matches, starting 35. Last season, she scored seven points on three goals, including two game-winners and one assist. She attempted a team-best 64 shots, good enough for ninth in the ACC.
