Charielle to take defensive skills to Naperville
Waubonsee Community College women’s soccer player Nicole Charielle has signed on to continue her collegiate career at North Central College in Naperville. The Chiefs’ standout defender will join an up-and-coming Cardinals’ program, which qualified for the College Conference of Illinois & Wisconsin (CCIW) women's soccer tournament for just the second time ever last fall.
Charielle was a two-time All-Illinois Skyway Collegiate Conference (ISCC) and All-Region IV defender for Waubonsee. The Oswego High School graduate anchored a Chiefs’ defense that posted 19 shutouts the last two seasons, including 11 this past fall to tie for third nationally among all NJCAA Division I Women’s Soccer squads. Charielle helped Waubonsee reach the Region IV Championship match both years, where the Chiefs fell 1-0 to nationally-ranked Moraine Valley Community College each time. The sophomore also managed to score three goals and register eight assists the last two seasons.
