“We are in the ‘dream fulfillment business’ here at Texas A&M,” head coach G Guerrieri said in a press release. “Barb’s dream was to be an Aggie soccer player with a goal of becoming a top professional player at the international level. I’m proud that she’s been able to see these dreams come true and only wish her the best in the next chapters of her life and career.”

The Texas native and Venezuelan youth international finishes her A&M career with 13 goals and eight assists in 27 games.
