ONE OF BARBADOS’ queens of football is back home.

Soraya Toppin-Herbert recently returned home after completing her undergraduate studies at the Purdue University in Indiana, United States.

The 21-year-old had mesmerised spectators, embarrassed defenders and angered goalkeepers with her ferocious shots, technical ability and confidence during her early years in the local football arena from age six to 16 as part of the Pro Shottas club, along with the national Under-20 and Senior women’s teams.

The former Queen’s College student has returned with a bachelor of science in movement and sports science after four successful years in the classroom and two exciting years on the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) Division 1 Big Ten soccer conference.
