Holly
Pierce waived by San Diego Spirit
The
Spirit waived midfielder Holly Pierce cutting its roster to 18 players,
which includes a vacancy for an unsigned international player.
After
signing Kim Calkins yesterday it increased the roster to 19 and
the Spirit was forced to waive one player. League rules mandate
that each team must have a roster of 18 or fewer players heading
into the 2002 WUSA Global Draft in February, which will include
mostly college players.
Pierce,
who played her college soccer at the University of Portland, spent
most of last season on the Spirit's reserve squad, but moved to
the active roster on June 27, 2001. She appeared in six matches,
playing a total of 56 minutes.
