Fredericton, NB – David Itoafa is thrilled to announce the addition of Izzy Sharpe, a standout goalkeeper from Fredericton, NB, to the women's soccer program for the 2024–25 season.

Sharpe's soccer journey includes playing for Fredericton High School and the Fredericton District Soccer Association (FDSA). Her commitment to excellence on and off the field aligns seamlessly with the values of the STU Women's Soccer Program.

Commenting on her decision to join St. Thomas University, Sharpe shared, "I think the STU Women’s Program is great and will continue to grow and keep getting better. The supportiveness of the coaches and the awesome team environment made me feel so welcome, which is a huge factor in why I decided to commit to the team."

Beyond her athletic pursuits, Sharpe is academically inclined, expressing interest in social sciences and sciences like chemistry and biology. With aspirations to become a physician, Sharpe highlighted the psychology program at St. Thomas as an ideal starting point for her university academics.
