Hempstead, NY - Hofstra University Women's Soccer Coach Simon Riddiough today announced the signing of Jill Mulholland and Jeannine Molleda to National Letters of Intent. The pair will join the Pride for the 2012-13 academic year.

Mulholland, a native of Levittown, NY, has played midfield for MacArthur High School for the past four seasons. This past season she earned All-America honors after helping the Generals to New York State, Long Island and Nassau County championships. The All-America accolade was just one of many postseason honors for Mulholland as she was also a first team all-state selection, an All-Long Island selection, an All-Nassau County pick, the Nassau County and Conference AA Player of the Year, the Nassau County Finals Most Valuable Player and the recipient of the 2011 Mike Clarke Award as the county Most Valuable Player.

She has also been a consistent member of the Region I Olympic Development Program (ODP) and as a member of the Albertson Fury club team, Mulholland was part of three state championship teams (2007, 2009, 2011) and one Region I championship squad (2007).

Molleda, a center midfielder, will come to Hofstra after a four-year career at Robinson Secondary School in Fairfax, VA. The Clifton, VA, native helped her team to a district championship as well as the regional finals in 2010. Molleda also ran two years of cross country at Robinson.

Molleda is also a member of FC Virginia, which plays in the Elite Clubs National League.

Hofstra is coming off a 10-8 campaign in 2011 that included a fifth consecutive appearance in the CAA Championship.
