Lizzy Priddy – sophomore – girls soccer

Q: Have you played more than one position before, if so why?

A: I play everything. I mainly play defense. I usually played center d for the longest of time, but then I got moved to outside and more recently played midfielder or forward whenever I needed to, but mostly midfielder. I have also been training to be back-up goalkeeper, but this year for this season, I will mostly be playing midfielder by the amount of defenders we have.

Q: How long have you been playing and how did you get involved?

A: I have been playing for around 10 years since my second year of first grade. I got involved by my dad because he is a big soccer person since he has been playing in a league when he was younger, and he got me into it, and I started liking it.
