JEFFERSON CITY, Tenn. – Carson-Newman women's soccer head coach Simon Duffy has announced Jessica Cable as the program's new graduate assistant coach.
"It's great to have Jess back involved with the program," Duffy said. "Excited to see how our goalkeepers continue to grow and develop."
Cable (ne'Fraiture) returns to a program where she played four seasons, from 2015-2018. Despite missing two full seasons because of an injury, Cable still played in 25 games, making 20 starts. All 20 starts came during her freshman season.
That same season, she recorded 10 shutouts in the final 15 matches of the year. Her stellar play down the stretch propelled C-N to the SAC Championship. In the championship game, Cable recorded her 11th shutout of the season leading the Eagles past Wingate to win, at the time, their fifth SAC championship. She did not allow a goal in the 270:00 minutes of action in the SAC Soccer Tournament and was rewarded by being named to the SAC Women's Soccer Championship All-Tournament Team.
Cable owned a 20-4 record in her Eagles career, while totaling up 68 saves. She ranks second in C-N women's soccer history in goals against average (0.89) and seventh in save percentage (0.764).
As a graduate assistant coach, she will work specifically with C-N's goalkeepers.
Carson-Newman begins the 2025 season on the road, September 4th at Union. First touch is scheduled for 3:00 p.m.
