The Sara Lott Memorial / Saunders 5K / 1 mile Fun Run is April 30th at 8am at Saunders Middle School. The proceeds from the Fun Run benefit the Sara Lott Memorial Scholarship Fund. It was established in memory of Sara Lott who played for MCSA and NVSC from 2002 to 2008. She played on U6 through U12 teams as a Recreational player and progressed to a Jr. Majestics Travel player. She began playing in the field and quickly gravitated to the goalkeeping position. In her last years she advanced to the ODP level. The Scholarship fund provides awards to female goalkeepers around Sara's age group; U12 - U16, that can benefit from additional, specific goalkeeper training to enhance their skills to support their teams. It pays for a fall season of individual or group training for a goalkeeper depending on their needs. Since the fund was started in 2008 there have been 7 recipients of this award throughout the Northern VA region.

We are proud that our goalie, Arianna Reichardt, won a Sara Lott Goalkeeper Scholarship in 2010. She and the team benefited from the extra training.
Many of our Courage 95 Gold girls knew and played soccer with Sara. She is missed by all.
