Jillian Karrick #0 (GK)
Jillian is the daughter of Greg and Wendy Karrick. She has played the last 3 years with the varsity team in the position of Goal Keeper. She is especially proud of the SMAC Central Championship Game and her favorite moment is when she stopped the penalty kick against Portage Central and the fans rushed the field at the end of the game. That highlight reel is definitely going with her when she attends Olivet Nazarene University where her ultimate goal is to become a Nurse Anesthetist. Jillian is a member of the National Honor Society and has a 4.61 GPA. Outside of school and soccer, she is active in her church youth group and volunteers with Bronson and the Special Olympics.

Thanks for everything throughout all my sports and endeavors." CONGRATULATIONS & BEST OF LUCK JILLIAN!
