Cottey's Cavanaugh signs with Stephens College

It's been a memorable week for Cottey's Chloey Cavanaugh. Cavanaugh received her associates degree last weekend, and also signed a national letter-of-intent to attend and play soccer at Stephens College in Columbia. Stephens is a private women's college and a member of the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics (NAIA), affiliated with the America Midwest Conference (AMC).

Cavanaugh was not a member of any of Cottey's sports teams, but did play soccer in high school. The signing took place May 13 at Cottey.
