Southern United player Emily Morison (19) enjoys the sun at Logan Park yesterday as she prepares for tomorrow’s national women’s league opener. In fact, the entire Southern United team is bringing that mentality to this year’s national women’s football league, which begins when Southern plays Central at Forrester Park today. She had been lured by the Southern United scholarship programme and wanted a change of scene from Capital, where she played for two years. While there was a short turnaround for her and the 11 other Tech players, she was hoping to carry over the momentum. Alongside her goal in the final, Morison had also found the net twice in the Kate Sheppard Cup semifinal.
