Jillian Swass Commits to Bristol

 

The Bristol Women's Soccer team officially welcomes Jillian Swass from Tiverton, RI to the soccer program.  Swass recently signed a letter of intent with Coach Jason Tassinari and Academic Coordinator Dr. Alyssa Frezza.

 

"We're excited that Jillian has decided to attend Bristol as a student-athlete this fall", says Coach Taz.  "She is technically solid, tactically smart, has a great work-rate, and comes from a very successful high school program.  She's also academically driven and will be a great teammate."

 

The Women's Soccer team is coming off a historic 2019 season in Coach Tassinari's first season.  The team finished with a 12-3-1 overall record, were Region 21 regular season co-champions, and lost in penalty kicks to Holyoke in the Region 21 Finals.    The team is graduating only 6 players, 4 starters.

 

"My recruiting focus this off-season is to replace our 3 outstanding central midfielders who are graduating this year (Kassidy Raposo, Makenzie Kennedy, and Makayla Pinkston).  They were outstanding leaders and were the anchors of our team centrally.  I'm confident that Jillian can step in to one of those 3 positions and make a huge impact for us this fall.  We're excited to have her for the next 2 years."
