"I'm looking forward to having Eloise in Aggieland," Guerrieri said. "She is a very serious student and soccer player, having spent the last few seasons at the prestigious IMG Academy. We have always been an attack-minded team, so adding another smart and unselfish forward to our mix is very exciting. I know Eloise will fit in nicely as a scoring threat and a great teammate."
Most recently, Descheneaux has been a star on the IMG Academy U19 Elite squad and has spent two years at the academy playing for Coach Miguel Rodrigues.
