Allison Graham is in her first season as a member of the Charlotte 49ers women's soccer coaching staff after a highly successful playing career at Clemson and on the United States national team.
"I'm really excited for the opportunity to begin my college coaching career at Charlotte with Jon Lipsitz and Sari Rose," Graham said. "The 49ers are taking the right steps to become a Top 25 program and I feel fortunate to be a part of the soccer family here at Charlotte."
She was a member of the U-19 and U-21 U.S. national teams. She also played an integral role in helping Clemson reach the NCAA Tournament in each of her four seasons (2002-05). In 2002, she was named to the first-team All-ACC freshmen team as well as second-team Soccer Buzz Freshmen All-American. She earned first-team All-ACC honors in 2003 and 2004 and she was a second-team All-ACC selection in 2005. As a senior in 2005, she was team captain.
Not only did she excel on the field, but in the classroom as well. She was a two-time NSCAA Scholar All-American and a four-year member of the ACC Honor Roll. In December 2006, she graduated from Clemson with a degree in Parks, Recreation and Tourist Management from Clemson.
She spent five years as a member of the Todd Bramble Lady Tiger Soccer Camp staff. During the camps, she was responsible for the administrative duties of a camp that has over 650 kids.
