Asia Porter begins her first season as a graduate assistant with the Bulldogs in the Fall of 2025.

Porter comes to Smithfield after graduating this May from nearby Providence College. She was a five-year starter for the Friars, appearing in 74 games over the course of her career.

"I am excited to welcome Asia Porter to the Bryant Coaching staff," Joyce said. "Having had the privilege of coaching Asia during her collegiate playing career, I know firsthand the depth of her understanding of the game. Her background in analysis, goalkeeping expertise and coaching experiences will add significant value to this program." 

The Somerset, Mass., native and graduate of Moses Brown School, posted 28 victories between the pipes for the Friars. Porter finished with 409 career saves, a 2.23 GAA and a .710 save percentage. 

Porter's best season came in 2023 as she posted a 10-7 record and backstopped Providence to six shutouts.
