From Coach Stephanie Riley-Schafer:
I am so proud to have been the coach of this program for 10 years. WPI is a special place. I have had the privilege of working with smart, driven, and kind people. To see our alumni, family and friends give to our program means so much. It’s the gift of belief and pride in what we are trying to achieve as a Soccer program.
We want to provide our student-athletes with experiences that will help us be a better team this season and that our athletes will talk about years from now.
Our goal each year is to be competitive in our conference and in the region. Our hope is to continue to perform on and off the field in ways that make our current and former student-athletes proud.
Looking ahead to next season, we would like to do an overnight trip early on to help our team grow closer as individuals and a team. Traveling, staying overnight and playing great competition helps us to become a better team, test our limits for the season ahead and create memories with our teammates that will last a lifetime.
We can only do that with your support!
Meet Lexi Carim ’25, Electrical and Computer Engineering:
“The women’s soccer team plays a big role in my WPI experience because it gives me a big support system here on campus. My teammates are some of my best friends here on campus, and I know no matter what that my teammates, along with the coaching staff, will have my back.
With my WPI experience, I am hoping to go into power systems, specifically the renewable energy section, so that I can improve ways in which we create and consume energy to make the world a greener and cleaner place."

Year after year, we have called on your generosity in supporting our student-athletes. And as every time before, we knew the teams could count on you.
With more than 1020 donors and over $192,000, your commitment has blown us away once again. Without a doubt, what you have achieved here this week will provide transformative support for WPI Athletics. You are the GOAT!
Stay tuned for additional thanks from the teams and final tallies next week. For now, rest assured that they have received your message loud and clear—you are someone who cares deeply about our student-athletes and who believes in them as they work toward their ambitious goals on and off the field and court.
It simply means the world to have you in our corner. Thank you.

We are in the final hours of GNGC2024 and appreciate all the support so far! Please help us reach our goal of at least $175k, as we demonstrate how important WPI Athletics means to all of us with our collective impact. If you’ve given already - thank you! and please help by reaching out to others and encourage their participation.
And when giving (or giving again!), please consider the WPI Athletics General Fund that helps all 600 student-athletes and our 18 teams with their care and performance development.
Go Goats!!
Dana L. Harmon, Director of Athletics
