Seniors Blair Monroe of North Myrtle Beach HS and Chelsea Terry of James Island have signed a National Letter of Intent with Coastal Carolina University. Coach Karrie Miller led the Chanticleers to a 7-11-2 mark this past fall and is 34-44-16 in five seasons at CCU.

In 15 matches a year ago for the Lady Chiefs, Monroe tallied 69 points with 33 goals and three assists for NMB, which finished 16-6 in 2004 and advanced to the Second Round of the Class 3A playoffs. NMB is coached by Tonya Merricks.

It looks like Coastal Carolina University has had a good day. Blair Monroe and Chelsea Terry are high quality, impact players. Congratulations Coaches Miller and Wilson. Let's hear more on who signed today.

A signing ceremony was held today at Hillcrest HS in Simpsonville, SC for Sheldon Robinson of the CESA U18 Premier who committed to Presbyterian College and will be coached by Brian Purcell.

The Aiken Fire had a good day today. There were 6 total off of this year's U18 team and 2 more that played with the Aiken Fire as U17s. Additionally 2 more graduated after their U17 year so in affect 10 of the players that played on the U17 will play in college. Three of the other players are still juniors and will most definately play college soccer. Another player from the U17 team had a verbal committment to Furman but decided not to play.

i hear that the the winthrop womens team had no early commitments but picked up two girls from australia this week.has anyone heard anything about that.

Casey Cash (CESA U18 Premier, Woodruff High School) signed with Erskine.

Other Spartanburg area signees from today's Spartanburg Herald:

Three area girls soccer players signed national letters of intent on Wednesday.

Dorman's Rachel Koenig, a two-time all-state defender, signed with Augustana College in Sioux Falls, S.D.

Koenig has started for three seasons at Dorman, scoring 12 times. Last season, she led a defense that allowed just 25 goals in 24 matches.

Spartanburg's Lytle Cannon, last season's Herald-Journal Player of the Year, signed with Presbyterian College.

Cannon led the state in scoring (34 goals), while she assisted on 13 others. She will be a leader on the Lady Vikings' team, which was ranked No. 6 in the preseason.

Woodruff's Casey Cash, an all-state player last year, has signed with Erskine College.

Last year, Cash won the Region II-2A Player of the Year award after she scored 32 goals and assisted on 12 others.

Anyone heard anything about any of the CESA boys?

Rachel Koenig played for Spartanburg Youth Soccer Club's U18 Challenge Team

Alison Brady of Summerville High School and SSC U-17 has signed with Newberry.

CESA boys that have signed: Zach Husk (U18 Challenge) signed with Erskine, Mike Cotton (U18 Challenge) signed with Newberry, Tyler Davis (U18 Premier) signed with Lander. I'm sure there are more. We will probably be seeing a complete list of CESA signees (boys and girls) soon.

Winthrop women's team signed four players. 2 Aussie's (one is a keeper), one from Tokyo (Dad is military) and one from Ohio.

Nobody yet from SC.

Brian Amey from Emerald High School signed with Erskine. I heard the coach there was rebuilding and starting from scratch with quality players. He allegedly signed 14 freshies. Good luck to him and his squad. He's got a great signee in Amey.

The new coach is one of Ralph Lundy's former asistants. He should do well.

His name is Ben Freakley..terrific motivator & coach and he's a great guy too..Erskine should be proud to have him.

Laura Bedenbaugh has signed a Letter of Intent with Coker College to help Coach Ayers rebuild the Cobras. Laura has played for the Hartsville Waves and Hartsville High School. Good Luck Laura!

Tristen Seabrook, Brookland-Cayce -- Erskine
Mallory Phillips, Brookland-Cayce -- Savannah College of Art & Design

It's very encouraging that all these players are going to play in College. Well done to all of them. Let's hope they work hard and play hard too.
