Louisiana Tech soccer and head coach Matt Lodge have announced the official signing of Emory Davis out of Battlefield High School in Haymarket, Virginia.

Davis brings in a wealth of high-level experience, with both her high school team and her club team being ranked squads. She also carries the skillset to be an asset at different areas of the field, primarily as an outside back, defensive midfielder and attacking winger.

“Emory is an athletic defender who can play in all positions along the bank line and defensive midfield,” Lodge said about his newest signee. “She is comfortable using either foot, and is a competitor. We are very excited to add Emory to our squad in the fall.”

In 2023, her Battlefield team was ranked the 16th-best team in Virginia while her club at the time, Virginia Development Academy, was ranked 25th among all ECNL girls’ clubs.

During her tenure with Northern Virginia Alliance from 2023-24, they were named Mid-Atlantic Conference champions. She scored nine goals in 13 games as a sophomore after tallying seven goals and 11 assists playing with VDA as a high school freshman.

Davis is a three-year varsity letterman for soccer, as well as being named to the All-6A District Team and a three-time Player of the Week during her sophomore campaign.
