Share article

JOHNSON – Former Craftsbury Academy (CA) multi-sport standout Ida Eames wrapped up an impressive career for her women’s VTSU-Johnson soccer team last week.

The Lady Badgers fell to the University of Maine-Farmington in penalty kicks last Wednesday in the quarterfinal round of the North Atlantic Conference (NAC) tournament. The two teams had played to a 0-0 tie four days earlier in their regular season finale, earning the Lady Badgers a home playoff match. Eames was honored, along with her fellow senior teammates for their outstanding collegiate careers on the pitch. The former CA track & field, cross-country and soccer standout finished her career with 12 goals and five assists for VTSU-Johnson. She helped lead the Lady Badgers to 23 wins the last three seasons, including a program best double-digit win season last fall that earned them the second seed in the NAC tournament.

Their loss last week ended their season at 8-4-5.
