Rachel Mathews -- F/MF-- Sacramento, Calif.

Rachel is an explosive forward who is transfering back to Northern California after one year at Winona State University in Minnesota. Prior to playing her junior year at Winona State, Rachel was a junior college All-American at American River College in Sacramento. During her stint at ARC she led the Big 7 Conference in points (94), goals (34), and assists (26) for two consecutive seasons. She is known for her unique combination of both strength and speed. Rachel will have one year of eligibility remaining with the Warriors.

"Rachel is an impact forward who can put the ball in the back of the net. She has the ability to break defenses down with her pace and she can also overpower them with her strength. She was one of our top recruits in 2007 coming out of American River College but unfortunately for us she decided to go to Winona State. However, we are very excited to have Rachel joining us for her senior season." -- Coach Bolton
