Christina Goodchild finished her second season as a member of the Elms College women's soccer team in the fall of 2011. Goodchild, who was named Second Team All-New England Collegiate Conference (NECC) following this past season, helped the Blazers earn the program's first-ever appearance in the NCAA Division III Championship. Goodchild scored a goal and notched eight assists as the catalyst for Elms' offensive efforts during the 2011 season, helping Elms claim its second NECC Championship tournament victory in the last four seasons. Seven of her eight helpers came against league competition and twice during the regular season, Goodchild delivered two assists in a game. She also connected for two assists in the Blazers' NECC postseason semifinal contest against Mitchell.
