The news about the new team shocked sophomore Carly Hewitt. If she chose to accept the mission, she would throw her entire plan off course. The environment would be familiar, but she could not know the full consequences of her decision.

Hewitt came to Butler intending to play soccer but was unsure about making the commitment as a Division-I athlete. Instead, she served as a women’s soccer manager last year and planned to try out for the team her sophomore year.
