Lauren Crenshaw: UTEP loses top defender and leader

UTEP soccer loses defender Lauren Crenshaw to graduation, one of its best players in recent history. Crenshaw finishes her career with 16 goals, 10 assists and 42 points for the Miner program. As a four-year starter, Crenshaw was in the opening lineup for 75 of 77 games for UTEP.

Originally from Gilbert, Arizona, Crenshaw started playing soccer at the age of four, along with her older sister, who was also keen on the game. As a freshman, Crenshaw was part of the Campo Verde High School 3A state championship team in Arizona.

To further refine her skills, Crenshaw attended Shattuck Saint Mary’s Preparatory School for her junior and senior high school seasons.
