CEDAR CITY, Utah – Southern Utah University's women's soccer head coach Kai Edwards is pleased to announce the addition of Snow College transfer, Mayu Yamamoto. 

Yamamoto has had a highly decorated career. She was selected to the first-team all-region last year after amassing 35 points on the year, and in 2021-22 she earned first-team all-American honors at Snow College. 

Coach Edwards said this on the addition of Yamamoto. "Mayu is a great addition to the Thunderbird Soccer Program. Her exceptional technique under pressure, coupled with her ability to assist and score goals, was proven by earning All-American status during her time at Snow College. We also look forward to Mayu adding value to our already diverse locker room environment as well as having an impact on the field this Fall!"

Mayu finished her career at Snow College with 22 goals and 21 assists, including an unbelievable three goals and two-assist performance against College of Southern Nevada last season. 

Yamamoto joins an already elite recruiting class for Coach Edwards who is looking forward to the 2023-24 season.
