One of the most important things I am looking for in my college experience is to be able to balance playing competitive field hockey and my academic goals. Academically, I would like to study either business or psychology and have an opportunity to study abroad. So far in my high school experience I have been able to maintain a high GPA taking challenging courses while at the same time playing on both a successful high school and club team. This high school experience has set me up to succeed at the next level of field hockey and academics in my college career. I believe that being a goalie gives me an edge as I am used to performing under pressure and making quick decisions.
