Katie Shea Collins Named U-17 ECNL Girls All-America
FRANKLIN, TN – For the second time this month, Katie Shea Collins was honored by Elite Clubs National League (ECNL) as she was named U-17 All-America on Thursday. Collins, a member of Tennessee Soccer Club’s 2005 ECNL Girls Team, was named Co-Player of the Year for the Ohio Valley Conference earlier this month.
Katie Shea was recognized as one of best 16 players in the country at the U-17 girls age group. She was a critical piece in the success of the TSC 2005 team who won the regular season conference championship and earned a berth into the ECNL National Championships this past summer.
The past few years, Collins has excelled on the field, having been selected to the US Women’s National Team U-17 Pool, as well as the Olympic Development Program (ODP) 2005 National Team.
Collins joins TSC alum Anna Haddock as the second TSC player to be named ECNL All-America. Haddock garnered the honor in 2017-18.
