written by Dave Parsons, Sports Information Director

MOUNT VERNON, Ohio - The Mount Vernon Nazarene University women’s soccer team has added another recruit to its roster for the 2007 season with the addition of Jamie Blair, who has decided to further her education and continue her soccer career with the Lady Cougars.

Blair, a midfielder from Ashland, Ohio, was a four-year member of the Ashland High School soccer program. She was also recognized all four years as a scholar-athlete for achievements both on and off the soccer field.

"I feel really good about Jamie’s decision to play for the Lady Cougars this fall,” said MVNU head coach Jonathan Meade. "She is the type of person that everyone enjoys having around. She is a hard worker who quietly gets the job done.”

"Jamie will add depth to both outside midfield and back positions,” Meade added. "She comes from a good high school program where she gained valuable experience playing at a high level. I am sure that she will fit into our system well and provide a positive contribution.”

"There are several reasons why I chose MVNU,” said Blair of her college choice. "I really like the small campus environment and the good education program.”

MVNU finished the season with a 13-7-2 overall record. The Lady Cougars won the American Mideast Conference South Division title, the National Christian College Athletic Association East Region crown, and the NCCAA national championship.
