Senior Katelyn (Kate) Jamie is going to DePaul University for soccer: “I’m very proud of all the work that I’ve put in because I feel like I’m very dedicated and it really shows in my play.”
Another student going to college for soccer is Senior Laney Smith. She will be attending the University of Dayton. Smith started playing soccer when she was 3 years old and stated: “I’m so excited.”
Going to Muskingum University for Softball is Senior Bailey Markus. Markus always knew she wanted to play softball in college but it took a lot of work to get where she’s at today.
She stated, “It’s challenging and creates a drive for me to keep playing”.
Senior Michelle Barth is going to be playing softball at Thomas Moore. Barth knew that she wanted to play in college and she said: “My coaches and people who had graduated talked about their experiences and how fun it was”.
