Brizard on Meloff: “We’re looking for Andrea to score some goals this year and rebound from some bad luck of last year. She is the type of player that can score goals from nothing or create goals from her crafty play and we expect her to find the back of the net a little more this year.”

In 2011 (Junior): Andrea played in all 19 games and started in 15, scoring two goals and distributing two assists to accumulate six points on the season, a number that ranked her second on the team. She took 24 shots and put 14 on goal, accumulating a shot-on-goal percentage of .583. Andrea scored the game-winning goal in a 2-1 victory over Lipscomb on Sept. 18 when she booted in the rebound off a goalkeeper deflection. She also scored against Eastern Kentucky on Sept. 30. Going into her senior season, Andrea is tied for fifth on Tech’s all-time goals scored list and ranks eighth in career points. She was named to the Athletic Director’s Honor Roll.

She racked up five goals, two of which were game winners, as well as one assist, and was an important player for the offense. Andrea ranked first on the team in points with 11 and was 10th overall in the OVC in goals per game, averaging 0.29. She was named to the Athletic Director’s Honor Roll as well as the OVC Commissioner’s Honor Roll.
