Lexi Scales signs to play soccer at the University of Charleston

St. Patrick senior Lexi Scales has always wanted to play college soccer, so, she said signing today with the University of Charleston, a private school in Charleston, West Virginia was "a dream come true."

The Golden Eagles play in the Mountain East Conference in NCAA Division II.

Scales tried out for the team over Easter break.

"I really liked it; I liked the location especially," Scales said.

She added that the school was kind of small like St. Patrick.

"Lexi was just a special little girl who you could move all over the field, "St. Patrick coach Father Michael Black said. "She was so versatile. She was so well grounded. Soccer flows in her blood, and that's so hard to find in Maysville, Ky."

Scales said she is undecided on a major.
