“Kelley was an outstanding player for us,” Leung said. “I was really pleased we could get her. It was very rare we got an outstanding player who was a local player. That was a huge plus. She was one of my captains and someone you could always count on to get everything done. Anything that needed to be done on and off the field. She was terrific in that sense.”
“Earning a starting spot my freshman year is probably one of the things I’ll never forget,” she said. “You come in as nobody and you have to try to earn your place. That is how I think I live my life. If you don’t have something handed to you, you got to go out and get it. I think it is where it taught me a lot. Just good times. Great memories, great friends that I keep forever, which is kind of more important than anything outside the soccer world.”
