“We are so united as one,” says Kelcie Hedge ’19 of the experiences she has had with Santa Clara Women’s Soccer. “We want to do the best for each other.

She and fellow Bronco Maria Sanchez ’19 have earned spots on women’s national teams—part of a Bronco tradition. And season after season, the Broncos earn a berth in the NCAA Tournament.
