Theobald on Ruffalo: "We only needed to see Macy play once to know that we wanted her to be a part of UCM soccer.  Then when Macy visited we were convinced she would be a great addition to our program. Macy is a quick, fast, dynamic forward who can finish.  Macy has won at every level and will bring that mentality to our team."
