College Commits’ Journeys

Published on September 26, 2019 in Features/Sports by Carson Schiller

The Wesleyan athletics program has been extremely successful with sending high school students to play at the collegiate level. With the help of families and coaches, the end of their journey marks their final decision, “Where do I see myself next?” Here are the following highlighted students: Lucy Mitchell, Reece Holbrook and Druw Jones, each with their own unique journey.

Lucy Mitchell:

From the first step on Notre Dame’s main campus to the women’s soccer field, senior Lucy Mitchell, felt most at home in South Bend, Indiana. Her commitment process was made easier because she loved the overall culture that Notre Dame offered. With senior year flying by, she is extremely excited for this last season with the Lady Wolves’ soccer team and what the futures holds for her at Notre Dame next fall.

How long have you been playing soccer?

“Since I was probably three or four, as long as I can remember.”

When did you realize you wanted to play in college?

“It has always been a dream of mine to play in college, but probably when I was 13 or so, I realized it was actually a possibility.”
