Fayette County

High School's Amy Eller had a lot to celebrate Friday.

She signed

her letter of intent to play soccer for Wingate University, coached by

former Fayette County High School girls coach Andy Thompson, and went

out and scored one goal with two assists in the Lady Tigers' win over

Stockbridge, which qualified them for the state tournament.

Eller will

most likely play outside back for the Lady Bulldogs. She has not decided

on a major.

She will be

joining former Lady Tiger Faith Joslin on the field next year, as well

as McIntosh's Lauren Kopec and Keri Pendergrass, who have also recently

signed to play for the school.

Eller has played

varsity for all four years of her career at Fayette County High School.

She was named Defensive Most Valuable Player in her freshman and sophomore

years and was also named All-County as a freshman.

In her junior

year, she was awarded the Tiger Award and this year she was the inaugural

recipient of the Gatorade "Will To Win" Award for the Lady Tigers.

Her most cherished memory of her years with the Lady Tigers will be the

bus rides to and from games.

Eller also

credits her Lightning coach, Jeremy Davidson, with helping her develop

her skills over the years.
