How long have you been playing soccer?

I've been playing since kindergarten! My first team was the gray eagles.

What is your favorite memory from your four seasons as a Greyhound?

Every moment - the first lunch on move in day freshman year when we couldn't tell Dana and her sister apart, wacky tacky practice day, making the NCAA tournament, Brea and Duncan's rap-off, losing our voices at the Race for the Cure, hearing the boys sing for their gear ... I could keep going forever.

What was your most embarrassing moment as a Hound?
Being the sweatiest person on the team for 4 years! And missing the bus to Fort Wayne during the spring my freshman year because I slept through my alarm. Geoff called me Rip Van Winkle for a while after that.

What will you miss most about this team?
Written on Kiley's white board is "their team versus our family." What I will miss most is being a part of this family.

What are your plans after this season?

Hopefully I'll stay a Greyhound for 3 more years and attend Physical Therapy school at UIndy! There might be two super fans in the stands next fall ... :)

What advice do you have for future Greyhound Women's Soccer players?

1. Hug your parents and tell them you love them after every game.

2. Leave the field everyday with no regrets.

3. Don't let anyone tell you that you can't accomplish something. Hard work, perseverance, and patience can go a long way in achieving your goals.
