Four EFC U18 Red Players Honored on Seattle Times All Area Team!

The Eastside FC Girls U18 Team had four players selected to the Seattle Times All Area Team High School Girls Soccer Team.  There are only eleven players honored on the All Area Team which makes it even more of an accomplishment for team to secure four of the eleven positions.  

Three of these players grew up through the Issaquah Youth Recreational Soccer Program and moved to Eastside FC (EFC) their U11 year seeking a more competitive soccer experience and professional coaching.  They have had the opportunity to train under terrific coaches at EFC, including Nancy Turner, Dan Strom, Tom Bunnell, Michelle French and Frank Gallo. 

The four girls have played together in the club season and/or on the Olympic Development Team for several years. Vargas, Nangle and Thomas have played on the same team since they were nine years old!

Sara Bindl – Defender at Kentwood HS, graduating in 2012 - attending the University of Portland

Cassidy Nangle – Forward at Liberty HS, graduating Dec 2011- attending the University of Oklahoma

Audrey Thomas – Midfielder at Issaquah HS, graduating 2013 with college plans undecided

Congratulations to these players and to Eastside FC!
