We truly have an incredible group of humans in our program, and we are always excited to share what they are up to outside of soccer.
This summer, Ally Klotz (‘26), has been working very hard off the field. She is a co-founder of a new organization in the Richmond area — the Daya Project Community and Refugee Advocacy.
The Daya Project focuses on advocacy for immigrants and Americans with disabilities, those living below the poverty line, and at-risk communities in the Richmond area.
Ally has formed a special connection with Sudanese refugees in the area and has even offered soccer clinics for the refugee children. Rising sophomore, Sara Liones, has volunteered in coaching the soccer clinics as well!
We are so proud of the impact our student-athletes continue to make in the world around them. Soccer is more than just a game — it’s a way to bring people together from different experiences, backgrounds, and lifestyles. Keep up the meaningful work Ally and Sara!
