Bryant University Soccer Coach 'Excited' to Add A-B Star
Midfielder Kaitlyn Spangler among the Class of 2017 for the Bulldogs.

Acton-Boxborough girls soccer star Kaitlyn Spangler recently signed her letter of intent to play for Bryant University, and the Bulldogs head coach can't wait to see her in action.
"Kaitlyn is a very solid midfielder that we are excited to see in action this fall," Bryant head coach Chris Flint said on the university's website. "She has a great work ethic and has had a lot of success at the high school and state cup level and will provide us with some much needed toughness next season."
A four-year starting midfielder under coach Lee Billiard at Acton-Boxborough, Spangler helped lead her team to a trip to the 2009 State Final and three-straight semifinal appearances (2009-11). She is a three-time Dual County League All-Star (2010-12) and an Eastern Massachusetts All-Star twice (2011-12).
