Renata just helping out her friends

Union College has had its share of great women's soccer players.

The Lady Bulldogs have had on their roster the all-time leading goal scorer in collegiate HISTORY!!! And Union is the only school in NAIA history to boast of having TWO women's soccer players to score 100 goals during their careers.

But what Renata Peixoto is doing is on a whole other level.

Yesterday, the sophomore midfielder dished out five assists in the 6-0 win over Bluefield, narrowly missing tying the school record of six helpers in a game.

However, dishing out assists is what Renata has been doing all season. Through only nine games this season, she has scored eight goals and had 17 assists - one shy of tying the school record. At this clip, Renate could make a serious run at the NAIA record which stands at 29.

There is some history possibly in the making at Union. But if you're not careful, you could miss.
