Carolina Ascent star prepares for playoffs in team's first season
The Carolina Ascent just finished their first season in the USL Super League and are now preparing for their first playoff run. The soccer club credits much of their success to the team's leading scorer Mia Corbin. Advertisement The team's general manager Philip Poole said that it's not just about Mia the soccer player. 'You know, there's a lot of football and soccer accolades that you can give her, but it starts with she is a phenomenal person,' said Poole. As early as she can remember, Corbin played both soccer and softball and one point she considered the diamond her best friend. Big crowds expected in Uptown as Taste of Charlotte, ballgames take over the weekend 'The first black female athlete I saw was a softball player, so ultimately that's what drove me to want to play sports because I was like if she can do it too, I can do it,' said Corbin. Advertisement 'I was like 10 years old. My grandpa had season tickets to the UW softball games. Her name was Dena Tyson. She kind of mentored me too. It was really cool. I'm really thankful to her and my grandpa obviously for taking me to the games,' said Corbin. Trio of teens makes professional debut for Carolina Ascent FC The transition from fast pitch to the soccer pitch had a lot to do with the joy she experienced with contributing to the team's ultimate goal. Corbin says that soccer also offered the rare shot in women's sports to go pro. 'That was my goal. I just wanted to play professionally. Softball unfortunately it's not there yet. I just want to help drive the younger generation to want to play women's professional sports because I think it's awesome, we're awesome,' said Corbin.

FAIRMONT, (WBOY) — Two Fairmont State graduate students have taken what they've learned in the classroom and applied it outside for everyone to enjoy. Madison Corbin and Caden Moore celebrated the completion of their community project, a Zen Garden, with a ribbon cutting at Morris Park in Fairmont Thursday morning. The project was completed in collaboration with the city of Fairmont and Morris Park. Corbin was happy to have had the hands on experience. 'This project, it allowed us to go beyond the book, go beyond the textbook,' Corbin said. 'So, it allowed us to show this project in real life and get hands on experience.' Morgantown student to compete in Scripps National Spelling Bee Moore was also grateful for the experience and the opportunity to give back to the community. 'It just offers a peaceful space, tranquility. Just somewhere to come and relax and just get away from work.'
