My name is Kiersten Medinger, I’m 17 years old. I’ve been playing soccer since I was 6 years old and don’t remember a time when I wasn’t playing. I became interested in soccer when my dad signed me up for Rec soccer. I realized I really liked it and started playing competitive the next year. Soccer has helped me realize that your family aren’t just those you live with but both my high school and club team are like my family as well. They brought out traits such as being a good leader and being able to learn new things.
I have many goals for high school and college. One goal is to finish high school as one of the top students in my class. I’d also like to participate in more after school clubs. A couple goals I have for college are to finish with a degree an be an integral part of a soccer team. I would like to perfect whatever skills I will need for my career as well.
I'm coming into my senior year now and hoping to continue to be a leader not only in school, but also on my soccer team. I enjoyed being a captain my Junior year and look forward in continuing to lead our High School team once again as a senior.
