FMSpro is proud to announce the commitment of Lilian Gauthier to NCAA D1 University of North Carolina Wilmington.

Lilian is a very technical and smart attacking midfielder/forward who currently plays for Athletico Ottawa. Lilian will also be joining AFC for the start of the fall season.

Lilian has a very high soccer IQ, as well as the bite and drive to get forward and go towards goal. Lilian isn’t afraid to take players on and plays a lot bigger than she is. Schools love Lilian’s work ethic and ability to create in the attacking third. Lilian also presses really well, which should translate well at the next level.

While many programs showed interest, Lilian commits to UNC Wilmington, as it was the best fit for her both academically and athletically. The head coach at UNC Wilmington is Chris Neal. UNC Wilmington is coming off winning the CAA, where they hope to compete for another championship.

The school has amazing opportunities, including being so close to the beach. Lilian couldn’t refuse the beach lifestyle, with the idea of playing at a high-level program outdoors all year round.

Off the field, Lilian has a perfect 4.0 GPA in the classroom. The future is very bright.

Big congratulations, Lilian, and wishing you all the best!
