Full Name: Course Title: Differentiation for the Gifted and Talented/Elementary Session: Summer 2016

September 15 marks the beginning of Hispanic Heritage month, a celebration of the accomplishments, stories, heritage and culture of Hispanic and Latino Americans. The celebratory month first began in 1968, commemorating the independence of five Latin America countries: Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras and Nicaragua.

Here at Girls Soccer Network, we are spotlighting Hispanic and Latino college soccer players all month. Although there are a ton of talented Hispanic and Latino female soccer players, there is still a lack of diversity in the sport. In 2015, there was only one Latina player on the women’s World Cup team, Amy Rodriguez.

On the current USWNT roster, there are no Latina players. However, this is not because of a lack of talent. We found six rising Latina athletes amongst the top college soccer programs in the U.S., and these are just a few on a long list talented players.

1. Julia Hernandez Originally from Madrid, Spain, Julia Hernandez began playing soccer at the age of 12. One of her fondest soccer memories is when she won her first National Championship in Spain. She is currently a junior in UCLA, majoring in Mathematics, and plays as a forward. In 2016, she played 19 games, and she scored a goal in UCLA’s win at San Diego State. In UCLA’s exhibition victory over Beijing Normal, she had a two-goal, one-assist game. 2.

Catarina Macario Catarina Macario is an undeclared freshman in Stanford University. Although her home town is San Diego, California, Macario was born in Sao Luis, Brazil. Her passion for soccer started during her early childhood years in Brazil, where one of her cousins played professional soccer. She is currently a forward in the Stanford Women’s Soccer Team and was named Top Drawer Soccer Preseason Best XI Freshman team.

She is an all-time ECNL top scorer with 165 career goals. 3. Martha Reyna In West Virginia, for the Golden Bears, Mexican goalkeeper Martha Reyna is a standout player. During her high-school career, she played volleyball and soccer, but she decided to shoot for her passion when she entered college and went for soccer. She achieved the Ibero and TEC Cup and earned All-State accolades. 4. Domenica Moncayo One of Reyna’s teammates who shares the Hispanic blood is Domenica Moncayo. Majoring in civil engineering, Moncayo is an Ecuadorian mid-fielder, who is better known by her teammates as “Dome.” During high-school she was part of the ASSA, SAAC and intercollegiate championships (2013-2016).

She earned a two-year scholarship and was MVP for two championships. 5 & 6. Sabrina and Monica Flores Last but not least is a pair of sisters who play for Notre Dame soccer, Sabrina and Monica Flores. Raised in Livingston, New Jersey they are proud Mexicans. Sabrina, a junior, plays as a defender/midfielder, and Monica, a senior, plays as defender. Sabrina was participant in the 2016 FIFA U-20 Women’s World Cup. In 2015, she was a CONCACAF U-20 Champion.

In 2016, Monica was a competitor in the Women’s World Cup. and she was called up to the full Mexico Women’s National Team (from January 2016; February and June 2017. There is an interesting dynamic between these sisters as Sabrina plays for the U.S. and Monica plays for Mexico in the U-20 level. However, they are both equally lovers of the sport and have some healthy competition between them.
