Alyssa Buchheit, cell and molecular biology student with a minor in chemistry and on the pre-med track, always knew that she’d play soccer at the college-level. 

“I’m so blessed to be a student athlete,” Buchheit said. “Instead of having to get a job during the school year, I get to play the sport I love with my best friends.”
