Why Cassidy chose Mizzou:
"I chose Mizzou because I wanted an atmosphere that would challenge me and present me with numerous opportunities for growth, and I immediately experienced that at Mizzou. I know that the staff and players will be able to push me to play at the next level."
Club coach Ralph Richards on Cassidy:
"Cassidy joined the SLSG MO ECNL 98 team at U14. It was in that moment when I knew nothing was going to stop Cass from her goal of playing at the highest collegiate level. Cass has always been determined, honest and worked extremely hard but in the past three years, I have seen her level of play climb to heights equal to the best central midfielders in the country. Cass will be a huge contributor to the Mizzou women's soccer program success both on and off the field."
