28 Days of Black at Brown

Yvonne Goldsberry '82, Women's Soccer

Yvonne Goldsberry was one of the key figures in the establishment of a women's soccer dynasty at Brown. She was a four-year All-Ivy selection, a co-captain as a junior and senior, and a defender for the 1980 squad that won Brown's first Ivy championship in 1980. She was an All-New England pick once, an All-Region choice on two occasions and was named second-team All-American as a junior. As a senior, Goldsberry earned the Bears' Bessie H. Rudd Award.
