Character

“Julie has officially served in the role of team captain for the past two years. However, she is a student athlete who is a natural leader and therefore has been a leader in our program for four years. Julie has excelled on the playing field with multiple accolades for all conference recognition as well as outstanding performances in the classroom each semester. Julie has represented Monmouth Women’s soccer with class since the moment she stepped on campus. She is the consummate team player as evident by her playing every position on the field during her four year career except goalkeeper. Julie is the first to cross the line in fitness, the first to step up when the game is on the line and the first to compliment a teammate. Julie is the type of player that every coach dreams of having as a part of her team. I am honored to have Julie wearing the Monmouth uniform as she accepts the responsibility with a high level of enthusiasm and passion.” - Head Coach Krissy Turner
