Student-Athlete Spotlight

Name: Megan Garrity

Hometown: Fountain Valley, Calif.

Nickname: None

Major: Communication

Favorite thing about WSU: I love that the team isn't cliquey like a lot of soccer teams, or any group of girls are for that matter.

Heroes: My parents, hands down. My dad for his strength throughout his heart condition and surgery and for being the rock of the family. My mom because she goes nonstop between her own job, my dad's health, my two knee surgeries, taking care of her mom and home and throw my little sister into the mix. She is a saint.

Best Career Soccer Moment: It's weird that the first one that comes to mind is a crushing loss. My junior year in high school, my team was a definite underdog in a game against the number one team in the country, Esperanza High. My team and I fought hard the entire game and their offense was down our defense's throat for 95 percent of it. We held onto a 0-0 score despite their 35 shots on goal versus our one. We ended up losing on a golden goal in the last 30 seconds of the second half of overtime.

Most Embarrassing Moment: Peeing my pants in the third grade talent show. Enough said.

Hobbies (other than soccer): Film and photography.

Favorite TV Show: Daisy of Love.

Favorite Band: Jurassic 5.

In Five Years Time...I will be a fifth-year senior on my way to a big sports network!

Favorite Quote: "Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding." -Proverbs 3:5
