CORAL GABLES, Fla. – Former University of Miami soccer standout Phallon Tullis-Joyce has officially signed a professional contract to continue her playing career overseas.
 
A stallworth in net over her five-year career at Miami, Tullis-Joyce has joined Stade de Reims, which competes in the French Ligue 2.
 
“I’m extremely excited and grateful for the opportunity to join the Stade de Reims family. The coaches, staff and team have been incredibly welcoming… I’m still just getting used to the double cheek kiss though,” Tullis-Joyce said. “I’m looking forward to the high level of training, wearing the Stade de Reims jersey, learning French and getting to know my teammates better.”
