Lexington, Ky. – Lexington Sporting Club has announced the transfer of defender Alyssa Bourgeois to its women’s team for the 2025/26 Gainbridge Super League season, pending league and federation approval.

She totaled 51 appearances, including 43 starts, for the Broncos and recorded one goal and six assists. She earned All-West Coast Conference honorable mention honors and was named to the WCC All-Academic Team.
The 2025/26 Gainbridge Super League season will mark Lexington SC’s second year in the league. The club competes in the United Soccer League’s full-season format, which runs from fall through spring.
Fans can expect to see the team in action on July 13, 2025, as Lexington SC takes on Racing Louisville SC in a preseason friendly at Lynn Family Stadium.
