Alexa Brull hadn’t given much consideration to playing college soccer last year.  2014 has come with an increase of playing and an increase of confidence.  Along with those two things came an increase of college offers.  Monday, Brull signed with Pratt Community College.  Along with having family in the Pratt area, Brull said the opportunity to play college soccer close to home helped make her decision.  Brull is currently part of an 8-2 soccer team that has won six matches in a row and is 5-0 in the Western Athletic Conference.  Hays is at Great Bend Monday evening to resume league play.
