[November 06, 2013]  Lincoln College women's soccer head coach Amber Angermeier Weekly was recently inducted into her alma mater's Athletic Hall of Fame.

Coach Weekly attended the University of South Alabama in 2001-2004 and was named to the all-Sun Belt Conference team three times. Only two other South Alabama Jaguars have accomplished that feat. Playing as a 5-foot-9 goalkeeper, she set a school record with 103 saves in her junior season. She was also named to the 2004 National Soccer Coaches Association of America/Adidas South Region Scholar Athlete All-American Team.

She currently is third in most career saves (305) and third in most career shutouts (18) in the University of South Alabama school history. She holds the second-best career goals-against average (1.37; minimum 25 games) in school history as well.

"It's such an honor,'' Weekly said while attending the induction event Saturday. "When I got the call about being inducted, it just brought back so many great memories that I had here in my time at South Alabama. I'm humbled and honored to be recognized today. Soccer paid my way through graduate school and the career that I have today. I'm teaching and coaching at a college, so it's easy to reflect back on all the values that I learned here at South Alabama.''

While at Morehead, she earned a master's degree in criminology. Prior to Morehead State, Weekly earned a bachelor's degree in criminal justice from the University of South Alabama.
