Ole Miss soccer landed two key transfers in Mary Kate Smith and Julia Phillips, head coach Matthew Mott announced Monday.
Phillips joins the Rebels after a year with Florida State, where she helped lead the squad to a 14-4-4 record. In her time in Tallahassee, the Seminoles fell no lower than No. 13 in the top-25 poll, advancing to the second round of the NCAA Championship.
The 5-foot-6-inch sophomore midfielder captained the Virginia State ODP team during its 2011 trip to Germany and played for FC Virginia ECNL. Phillips attended Bishop O’Connell and Stone Bridge High School and was a varsity starter as a freshman.
