The 2008 version of the Millsaps women's soccer team, led by six outstanding seniors, was something special. After making strides the past two seasons, the team finally turned the corner, posting its first winning season since 1994 and only the second in the modern women's soccer era (1991 – present). They did not stop there however, winning a school record 13 games, including a record-setting seven to kick start the 2008 campaign.

The team was stingy on defense and prolific on offense, conceding just 26 goals for the year in 20 games (1.3 GAA) while tallying a school record 44 of their own.

Leslie Robichaux, a Second Team All-Southern Collegiate Athletic Conference selection at forward, led the team with 10 goals and 23 points overall. She was tied for the team points lead with freshman midfielder Jessica Harris (seven goals, nine assists), while senior forward Bobbi Jones was close behind with six goals and eight assists for 20 total points. Also posting double digit point totals were senior forward Erin Sanford with 12 points (five goals, two assists) and junior central defender Meredith Harris, a First Team All-SCAC nod conference pick, with 11 (five goals, assist).

Harris also assisted senior goalkeeper Elizabeth Sooby in leading the team to a single-season record nine shutouts. The team also set program records in lowest goals against average (1.30) and four conference wins (all shutout wins), which tied program bests in both regards and resulted in the highest conference finish since 1996.

As the Majors bid farewell to their six terrific seniors, midfielder Hayley Barber, defender Ann Blumer, midfielder Kristen Massey, Jones, Sanford and Sooby, the cupboard is far from bare. The program will return 20 letterwinners, including two all-conference selections and top two scorers, for the 2009 slate.

The future looks bright for the Millsaps College women's soccer program.
