Meridian Lady Eagles capture Region 23 title, set to host District
 November 2, 2009

(MERIDIAN) - For the third consecutive season the Meridian Community College Lady Eagle soccer program has captured a post-season championship.

In 2007, MCC won their first ever title by capturing the MACJC State Championship, in 2008 MCC did one better by capturing the NJCAA Region 23 Championship and advanced to the program's first ever NJCAA District Tournament. This season, head coach Alex George and his Lady Eagles added yet another banner to the program as MCC won back to back Region 23 championships with a 3-1 victory over Pearl River Community College on Saturday.

Freshman, Anastasia Vogel of Pontotoc, MS, led the way for MCC as she scored two goals. Kelsey Edwards, a freshman from Terry, MS, added an additional goal for the Lady Eagles as they will advance to their second consecutive NJCAA District Championship this weekend.

The Lady Eagles will host the Women's District Soccer Championship this Saturday at 2 PM at the Northeast Soccer Complex. MCC will play host to Tyler Junior College and a win will send MCC to the 2009 NJCAA National Championship Tournament.
