Her time at SMS seemed to pay some nice dividends. She was consistently one of the top junior performers and at the end of the season she was one of 3 girls named to the Australian Junior A team. Ashleigh is enjoying a brief off season in the sun and surf before she returns to SMS for winter term.br /br /Another top performer last month was none other than our Head Coach Sverre. Following his presentation at a national USST coaches conference, Head USST coach Pete Vordenberg had a nice write up that mentioned Sverre and SMS on the USST Nordic site www.teamtoday.org. There are also some goods pictures of the USST training camp in LP that show SMS alums Andy Newell, Morgan Smyth and Sophie Caldwell.br /br /Click Team Today link right above SMS training camps links on right side of pagediv class=”blogger-post-footer”img width=’1′ height=’1′ src=’https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4680416899705879324-3342558771771205313?l=smsxc.blogspot.com’ alt=” //div
