She led the team in scoring in her sophomore and junior seasons with 32 and 52 goals, respectively, picking up Outstanding Offensive Player of the Year award honors from coaches Tony Benvenuto and LeAnn Johnston.

Celine Vega commits to the University of South Carolina Aiken.
Vega is a 3.4GPA student who pushes herself with honors classes and exemplifies that of a student athlete. On the court, she has averaged north of 17 points per game in a year, and she’s already surpassed the illustrious 1,000-point mark as a junior. On a stacked FPC team this season, her point totals have gone down, but she has been a key contributor, especially in the Bulldogs’ last game, where they had to come from behind against Spruce Creek to remain undefeated at 13-0.
