(Sept. 7, 2011) - Dominion High School Class of 2008 grad Lauryn Hutchinson, who currently plays at Virginia Commonwealth University, has made the Women's National Soccer Team for Trinidad and Tobago.

Hutchinson has been named to the squad's roster in advance of the Pan American Games.

"This opportunity is a life-changing experience for me and I look forward to growing not only as a player, but as a person," Hutchinson told the VCU athletic department in a release. Hutchinson, a forward, played in 33 games in her first two collegiate seasons and made 12 starts for the Rams.

Hutchinson's father, Nigel, is a Trinidad and Tobago native. She will travel to Trinidad and Tobago in late September to train for the 2011 Pan American Games, which run from Oct 14-30 in Guadalajara, Mexico.
