Smith set to rewrite GW record book this weekend

Senior Chemar Smith should soon break the all-time points scored record of the GW women’s soccer program as her career and her team’s season comes to a close.

With four regular season matches left on the Colonial women’s schedule, Smith needs just one point to become GW’s all-time leading scorer.

So far this season, Smith has recorded 12 goals and 4 assists, raising her career point total to 96. Her two goals against St. Bonaventure tied her with Diane Kelly, who compiled 96 career points in the late 1980s.

Smith already holds one GW record – most goals scored by a freshman (11 in 1994). She has a chance to break two other records and make her mark as GW’s most prolific scorer.

She needs five more goals to break Kelly’s all-time goals scored record (44). Smith, who has 16 career assists, also could break the all-time assist record. Kristin Davidson set that mark last year, tallying 19 career assists, so Smith could break that record as well with four more assists.

Smith will go after the point milestone this weekend in two home matches against two tough Atlantic 10 opponents, Xavier and Dayton.
