In the midst of finals week of her masters of science in marketing program, graduate transfer Simone Wark is winning Missouri Valley Conference (MVC) weekly awards and helping grow the women’s soccer program.
Wark, 23, is originally from Ontario, Canada, but came to Loyola from the University of South Carolina. She played three years there, only missing out on her junior year due to a torn muscle in her knee. At the end of the 2018 season, she said she found herself wanting more.
Her senior year season ended during a 1-0 upset against Penn State University in the second round of the tournament, and she said she felt cheated.
