Time to start a new thread for 2025. Last season's thread can be found at Stanford University 2024 [R] Let's welcome to the Farm the early admits from the Land of Provel - Caroline Birkel and Lily Freer First Day on The Farm 🌲Happy first day of classes to our early enrollees, @CarolineBirkel and @LilyFreer1!#GoStanford pic.twitter.com/kS4X0FDqDL— Stanford Women's Soccer (@StanfordWSoccer) January 7, 2025 https://www.instagram.com/stanfordwsoc/p/DEgTXm4Oz73/ Maybe Freer can add some steel to the midfield. Birkel enrolling early is interesting. Last season, Savig played a handful of minutes, and I thought Jota was redshirting. Imagine my surprise when Jota was introduced as GK2 in the Tournament. Injury perhaps? No one of the 3GKs have a college start. it's virtually an open competition, so enrolling early, and if she impresses in the spring, Birkel might get the starting job.
Sammy Smith strapped on her XC skis just before Christmas. 10 days later, she's the third overall finisher, and the first American finisher in the 1.3K classic sprint. De facto, the US national champion in the discipline [link] It's a paywalled article. Excerpts if unable to access... Congrats to Sammy Smith for such an incredible achievement. I'm surprised she's spending Winter quarter on campus. If her XC career stalls, and if she can handle an Anschütz rifle, maybe she can try biathlon. i'm crazy about soccer, but nuts about biathlon. Last year at Soldier Hollow was a blast.
from olympics.com: Sammy Smith, 19, is a top cross-country skier and football player for Team USA - so she competes in both
she also was the top ranked junior mogul skier bound for the Olympics before giving that up. She also could be elite in xcountry if she wanted to as well. Will be interesting how her career goes. The hype has tapered off a bit
Our program is built on developing a strong sisterhood ♥️For Logan and Sammy Smith, that is just the way it's always been.#GoStanford pic.twitter.com/LrqMDoiMMl— Stanford Women's Soccer (@StanfordWSoccer) April 1, 2025 The Smith Sisters
