MK's Decision


While Rob was on his flight to the Islands, McKenzie and I got a call from Coach Ruegner, the women's soccer coach at BYU-Hawaii. The coach told me that after watching McKenzie's film and talking to her competition and high school coaches, he wanted her to play soccer for him and, btw, he needed a commitment by Friday (it was Wednesday). Whoa.

As soon as Rob landed, we were texting fast and furiously and calling each other over and over again. MK fasted Thursday, and by Friday she had decided she was no longer interested in playing for Dixie State. !!!

When we first heard that BYU-H was interested in her a month ago, all three of us shot down the idea. We were panicked at the thought of her being that far away. But, over the last week, we've gotten strangely comfortable with it. That, and excited. Congratulations, MK! We are so happy for you!
