JOHNSON, Vt.-The Northern Vermont University-Johnson women's soccer program and Head Coach Andrew Lafrenz have tabbed an in-state commitment for the 2021 fall season.

Arwen Clayton a native of Chelsea, Vermont and a student-athlete at Thetford Academy has signed the necessary paperwork and will arrive on campus in the fall of 2021. 

When arrived at NVU-Johnson, Clayton plans to pursue a degree in business management. "I chose NVU-Johnson because I have known Coach Lafrenz for a while now and I think his coaching style and this group would be a perfect fit for me," said Clayton. "I believe working with this team will help me transition back after my knee injury and I look forward to getting started."
