Katelin Nielson Added to the 2015 Recruiting Class

Western Wyoming Community College Women's Soccer is pleased to announce the addition of Katelin Nielson.  Katelin is from Leamington Utah and a 2015 graduate of Delta High School.

Katelin was an outstanding student while a student at DHS and we anticipate the same from her as she arrives on campus this fall.  Nielson plans on studying Psychology at Western Wyoming.

Katelin and her DHS Lady Rabbit teammates had a couple of great season during the 2013 and 2014 years.  Both seasons the DHS team made it to the Utah 2A State Semi-finals.

Nielson was a 1st team All State Player her junior year, 2013 and an Honorable Mention All State Player her senior year, 2014.  She missed a majority of her senior year with an injury.

The last defender or sweeper is where Katelin played the majority of her soccer career.  However, she is open to play anywhere on the field to help out her team including goalkeeper.  We envision Nielson as a vital member of the 2015 team using her aggressiveness and speed to benefit the Mustangs no matter where she may play on the field.

Speed is a big part of Katelin's game she was part of an all state team in track for the medley and the 4x100 meter relay. In 2014, Nielson's 4x400 team took state in the 2A,  During her senior year she and her DHS track teammates took state in the 4x100 race in 2A track.

We know that Katelin is an excellent addition to the team and will set the tone for the Mustangs in training sessions and matches.  Western is lucky to include such a superb student and soccer player.
