Bryn Mawr's Barger set to play at Maryland
Bryn Mawr junior midfielder Riley Barger, who led the No. 12 Mawrtians (17-1-1) to their second straight Interscholastic Athletic Association of Maryland B Conference championship, has made a verbal commitment to play at Maryland.
In her third year as a starter, Barger scored 12 goals and added 20 assists -- providing the championship-clinching goal in the latter stages of the Mawrtians' 2-1 win over Roland Park in Saturday's title game.
"Riley has been a difference-maker in our program," Bryn Mawr coach Tina Steck said. "She brings such a high level of technical ability with the ball and she's always pushing herself and teammates in a positive way. She raises the level of everybody's game and is a great asset to have."
Barger, who has been offered a full athletic scholarship to play at Maryland, also received offers from Wake Forest, Penn State, Vanderbilt, Florida and Georgetown. This season, the Terrapins earned a No. 1 seed in the NCAA women's soccer tournament for the first time in program history as they will host High Point on Friday.

Congratulations! Thats quite an achievement. Guess she doesn't play club for FC Frederick because she didn't even make the All-State team. Glad that Maryland coaches aren't relying on the Frederick coaches to tell them who is good :)
