I could never have predicted how much you would have impacted my life. This sport gave me discipline before I understood it, resilience when I needed it most and the best support group I could ever imagine. There were many early mornings, tough losses, moments of doubt, but so much growth in between that made everything worth it. Every practice, every game and every season built a stronger and steadier version of me. Soccer was never just a sport, it was structure, it was community, and it was home for me.]]></description><media:thumbnail url="https://twuathletics.com/common/controls/image_handler.aspx?thumb_prefix=rp_system&amp;image_path=/images/2026/2/24/81-DSC03793.jpg" /><media:content url="https://twuathletics.com/common/controls/image_handler.aspx?thumb_prefix=rp_primary&amp;image_path=/images/2026/2/24/81-DSC03793.jpg"><media:title>Mia vs WT</media:title></media:content><enclosure url="https://twuathletics.com/common/controls/image_handler.aspx?thumb_prefix=rp_primary&amp;image_path=/images/2026/2/24/81-DSC03793.jpg" length="1" type="image/jpg" /><pubDate>Tue, 24 Feb 2026 23:14:00 CST</pubDate><s:sport_id>3</s:sport_id><s:story_id>6086</s:story_id></item><item><title>A LETTER TO SOCCER BY CELESTE BELTRAN</title><link>https://twuathletics.com/news/2026/2/24/soccer-a-letter-to-soccer-by-celeste-beltran.aspx</link><guid>https://twuathletics.com/news/2026/2/24/soccer-a-letter-to-soccer-by-celeste-beltran.aspx</guid><category>Soccer</category><description><![CDATA[<img alt="Celeste vs WT" src="https://twuathletics.com/common/controls/image_handler.aspx?thumb_prefix=rp_primary&image_path=/images/2026/2/24/103-DSC05719.jpg" /><br /><br />Dear Soccer,
