Grambling Lady Tigers Complete Opening Week of Fall Camp

GRAMBLING, Louisiana | The Grambling State University women's soccer team completed its opening week of practice on Wednesday, which also meant the end of two-a-days for the Lady Tigers.

 During the opening week, the Lady Tigers worked on skill and footwork, but also got the opportunity to work on team bonding when the team made a trip to Lincoln Parish Park.

1:24 PM - Aug 8, 2018
Grambling State, which will be looking for its first SWAC title in 12 years, returns a plethora of talent off last year's team, including SWAC Preseason Offensive Player of the Year Kaylee Holt and All-SWAC performers Brittany Terry, Jasmine Smith and Haileigh Adams. Despite losing just three starters off last year's squad, Wagar heavily recruited in the offseason and has brought in 16 new faces.
 
The Lady Tigers went 11-7-2 in Wagar's first season, which ended in the SWAC Championship game when Grambling State tied Alabama State 0-0 after two overtimes, but fell in the penalty kick shootout.
 
Grambling State begins the first of four straight road trips on Friday, Aug. 17 when the Lady Tigers visit Beaumont, Texas to take on Lamar. GSU meets Nicholls State (Aug. 19), Idaho (Aug. 24) and Eastern Washington (Aug. 26), before its first home match on Aug. 31 against Southern Miss.
