STATESBORO, Ga. – South Georgia Tormenta FC has announced the addition of defender Bridget Schuler to its 2022 USL W League roster, pending league and federation approval. Schuler joins Tormenta FC for the remainder of the 2022 USL W League season.
Schuler brings five years of playing experience at Western Illinois University. In 2021, Schuler played 18 games for the Leathernecks, scoring six times and assisting twice. Since 2017, Schuler has racked up 63 games for the Division I program. Schuler joins Western Illinois teammate and now Tormenta FC teammate Amy Andrews.
In June of 2021, Tormenta FC was named a founding member of the USL W League, an elite pre-professional pathway for women looking to build their careers both on and off the pitch. For two decades between 1995 and 2015, the W League saw some of the biggest names past and present in the sport compete on the field, and this new era will build on the legacy of its predecessor. In alignment with the USL League Two season, the W League will kick off in May and end with the W League Playoffs and W League Final in late July.
