Alabama announces West Coast-heavy signing class, featuring 8 total recruits

TUSCALOOSA, Ala. – The Alabama soccer team welcomed eight signees to the Class of 2024, head coach Wes Hart announced.

The Crimson Tide will welcome in a strong group for the 2024 season as Breezie Brewer, Kiley Kukan, Lexi Meyer, Madi Munguia, Sophia Neves, Madeline Padelski, Ashley Roni and Maison Smith signed their National Letters of Intent.

“This is a big day for the future of Bama Soccer,” stated Hart. “We are beyond excited to welcome this group of talented, fierce competitors to our team. One can read their extensive list of accolades and accomplishments and gather that this is one of, if not the most decorated class in program history.”

“Our coaching staff worked hard to identify and recruit what we felt were the best fits for our style of play and our team culture,” Hart continued. “For six of them, the fun begins in January when they will enroll early here and begin their college soccer journey with us. We are looking for this group to make an impact from day one as we blend them in with what is a great group of returning players. We want to officially welcome them and their families to the Bama Soccer Family! The future is bright in Tuscaloosa!”
