Sarah joined the Academy back in 2003 when she was only 13 and the youngest female to join Academy One at that time.

She led the team to four straight Conference Championship matches with two titles in one of the best private school conferences in the country. Sarah was named All-Conference and twice All-County. Sarah had an even more impressive club career. She played for the Team America Premier Spirit team that was the Virginia State runner-up U-17. What is amazing about this is that Sarah was playing up three age groups in, what was then, the top division in the top league in the nation. She was also considered one of the best goalkeepers in that division. Sarah then moved to the PSC Elite team that was one of the best teams in Maryland and the region. Sarah helped lead the team to two Maryland State Cup final fours and one championship match. The team also won a National Indoor Championship with Sarah in goal. Sarah was a three year member of the Maryland Olympic Development State team (Along with fellow Academy One member Wendy Balogun). Sarah was also a member of the Washington Freedom Super Y-League team, playing up an age group. After high school, Sarah turned down several NCAA Division I college offers to take a scholarship at nationally ranked NCAA Division II Catawba College in North Carolina.

After her freshmen year, Sarah made the very tough decision to focus on academics and leave the soccer team. She graduated for Catawba College after dealing with some health issues and then decided to stay in Carolina where she lives now.
