Carson is entering her third season as an assistant coach on the Southeastern soccer staff in the fall of 2021 under fifth-year head coach Chris McBride.
In her second season, Carson helped guide the Lady Lions to the Southland Conference Tournament title. SLU finished the season with eight shutouts including outscoring their opponents 18-4 in their final 12 matches.
The 25-year old played four years (2015-18) at Mississippi College helping guide the Choctaws to a 48-17-7 record during her career. The Bury St. Edmunds, England, native, scored eight goals and six assists in 72 career matches and 65 starts as a defender. Carson is currently a coach at the Mandeville Soccer Club.
“She brings a lot of experience,” said McBride. “She was a well-accolated player during her career and just finished playing a few months ago so she understands the new trends in today’s soccer game with the new coaching thoughts. The role she played on the field was being a very intelligent player and well-rounded in all aspects of the game. I think she has the right coaching mentality and has a similar playing style to how we play here.”
