New Ute: Ashley Mosley Brings Speed to the Defense


Ashley Mosley came onto the Utah recruiting radar somewhat late in the process. She was spotted at the Thanksgiving Surf Cup in San Diego. And we are very thankful indeed! Ashley is a fast and versatile defender. She is two-footed and can play on any row of the field (defense, midfield, forward). Ashley is a great competitor and will bring speed and toughness to the Ute back line.

Ashley is from Las Vegas, Nevada, where she plays for the Players SC and coach Saeed Bonabian (a former Utah men's soccer coach!) as well as Centennial High School. Ashley spent some of her early years in Okinawa, Japan...sounds like a great adventure. She also had some great battles with current Utah defender Lauren Dudley as Ashley's Centennial and Lauren's Palo Verde are great rivals!

Welcome, Ashley!
