LSU's first African soccer player is an ocean away from where she was born, and she's miles from her first residence in the United States. But no matter where she is, when she steps between the lines with a ball at her feet and a smile on her face, Diwura-Soale is right where she belongs.
Diwura-Soale is a native of Accra, Ghana, a small African community with a love for soccer. She absorbed that love for the game at a young age, but even as she progressed and developed her skills, she realized talent would not be enough to carry her to the levels of the sport she aspired to.
