Why OU: “I chose Oklahoma because it’s home. Growing up I looked up to the OU athletes and dreamed of playing at the highest level and representing my state on the field. Playing for Oklahoma gives me the opportunity to stay close to family and friends, which is very important to me. I know the coaching staff will push me to be my very best not only as an athlete, but academically as well. I’m proud to take my journey to the next level and can’t wait to contribute to the legacy of OU soccer!”
