Avenging Angels Collect Championships

Meredith’s Avenging Angels won two championships during fall competition, securing a 35-point lead in the USA South Women’s President’s Cup standings. Meredith won the award for the first time in program history in the 2014-15 season, and the prospect of a repeat is strong.

The Avenging Angels cross country team, led by junior Itzel Gonzalez, captured the program’s third consecutive USA South Conference Championship. First-year Head Coach Leslie Payne continued Meredith’s new tradition to defeat rival Covenant by 12 points for the title.

With a nearly perfect record, including 11 consecutive league victories and only two goals allowed, the Avenging Angels soccer team claimed the USA South Regular Season Championship and earned the number one seed in the conference tournament. Meredith hosted the semi-final round of the USA South Conference Women’s Soccer Tournament, where they were upset by the fourth-seeded Methodist University Monarchs 1-0.
