My name is Briley Rutledge, and I’m a first‑year women’s soccer player at Thomas College, majoring in Sport Management. I grew up in Waterbury Center, Vermont, where my passion for soccer began at a young age and carried me all the way through high school and into college competition. From my time playing club soccer with Vermont United Soccer Academy to leading my high school team at Harwood Union, I’ve always focused on improving every day with heart, grit, and a team‑first attitude. In my first collegiate season with the Thomas College Terriers, I’ve made an impact on the field by contributing key goals and assists, and I was honored to earn North Atlantic Conference Co‑Rookie of the Week recognition for my performances early in conference play. https://nacathletics.com/news/2025/9/15/nac-womens-soccer-weekly-awards-9-15-25 https://athletics.thomas.edu/news/2025/10/12/womens-soccer-womens-soccer-thrashes-vtsu-lyndon-12-0
