- Keep. Another cookie-cutter nomination with no evidence of WP:BEFORE. Lots of press coverage easily found on Google News.

- Delete A copy and paste from the NJCAA website, an interview and two match reports don't go to GNG. The MVP award article contains a few lines on her but nowhere near enough for a GNG pass. Searching for sources didn't bring up anything useful. Dougal18 (talk) 15:38, 19 August 2022 (UTC)
- Delete, I could not find enough coverage to reach a GNG pass. Of the sources available from a search, this is a student newspaper at the Dallas College Brookhaven Campus, and is therefore not reliable, this is just a quote and a passing mention. The only source that looks half-decent I could find was this, which is not enough for a GNG pass by itself. Devonian Wombat (talk) 04:03, 20 August 2022 (UTC)
- Keep - Per Pburka. Besides the sources they found, I found 7 and 8 among many many other sources from bernews.com and royalgazette.com etc. She is clearly significant figure in Bermuda women's and international football and helped Brookhaven College win their first national championship. I look at the other Sports WikiProjects (or any WikiProject) and they don't nearly have an article deleted per day, let alone 20. By the time I finish writing this, another 20 will probably be deleted. Article needs improvement, not deletion. Thanks, Das osmnezz (talk) 15:51, 20 August 2022 (UTC)

- Delete. There were 7 articles across two sources brought up during AfD:
- Ber News Region V Division III Women's Soccer Player of the Week: straight press release, ; Ber News Meet Bermuda Football Player Deshae Darrell: pure Q&A interview,
- Royal Gazette #1 ("dazzles"), #2 ("final"), #3 ("MVP"), #4 ("fruit"), some very positive "hometown girl makes it big"-style commentary on her performances at D3 junior college matches and the NJCAA Division III Women's Championship, all by the same author. Together they amount to non-trivial coverage, but each is essentially a routine recap with almost nothing of encyclopedic value, . #5 ("scholarship") is another press release, . I think Bermuda might be the number 1 source for this Texas community college's sports news! Nevertheless, the hyperlocal focus without any broader attention suggests limited appetite for a standalone page of global interest. JoelleJay (talk) 00:29, 22 August 2022 (UTC)
- Delete - no evidence of notability. Agree sources above not good enough. If sources are found please ping me. GiantSnowman 18:16, 22 August 2022 (UTC)
