Biography

Senior Season — 2017
DeLoach once again led the Big Red in scoring and joined classmate Kaylee Fitzgerald as the only members of the team to start in all 14 games. Her first of two goals came in the team's home opener against Eastern Washington on Sept. 3, then her second came in an Ivy League contest against Harvard on Oct. 7. DeLoach sped past the central defense to meet a pass from Grace Keller around 15 yards from goal, sliding a shot along the grass that caromed off the post. She was the only player to follow the play, easily converting the rebound. DeLoach ranked third among Cornell field players with 983 minutes played.

Junior Season — 2016
DeLoach was the Big Red's target forward and led the team in scoring with nine points on four goals and an assist. She scored the only goals of Cornell's first two games in nearly identical fashion, using space to expose opposing defenses in 1-0 victories Aug. 28 at Siena and Sept. 2 at Loyola. After scoring the team's goal against Princeton on Oct. 29, DeLoach ended the season in style with a three-point game on a goal and an assist in a 4-1 victory over Dartmouth. After the season, she was presented with the team's Best Attacking Player award. 

Sophomore Season — 2015
DeLoach broke through for four goals, which tied for the team lead. As arguably the Big Red's biggest threat in the forward rotation, DeLoach scored twice in the squad's first three games against Loyola on Aug. 30 and Cleveland State on Sept. 4. Her third goal featured terrific individual effort Sept. 27 at Wagner when she dispossessed a center back, beat the defender one-on-one and capped it off with a strong left-footed finish. DeLoach's fourth goal came Oct. 24 against Brown. Her eight points were second on the team.

Freshman Season — 2014
DeLoach made an immediate impact upon arrival, scoring the lone goal of the Big Red's 1-0 victory Sept. 7 at Marist. She appeared in a total of 14 games, earning a start in the season finale against Dartmouth — another 1-0 victory for Cornell.

Prior to Cornell
DeLoach was a 2013 all-county selection for Elizabeth Seton HS. She also received all-league honors in all four of her seasons with the varsity squad, including first-team selections in 2012 and 2013. DeLoach was also a member of the National Honor Society, a National Merit Program Commended Student, and a National Achievement Program finalist. She also played on the club level with Maryland United FC of the Elite Clubs National League.

Personal
Paige Alexandra DeLoach is the daughter of Johnnie and Lauren DeLoach, and she has two sisters. Her father played soccer at Brown, and one of her sisters, competed in track and field at Brown. She is enrolled in the College of Arts and Sciences.
