Big News Fans!!!!! On Monday Feb 11, 2002 Kristin was drafted in the 4th round by the Atlanta Beat. Which makes me really happy because not only does she have the opportunity to continue her career professionally, she was be doing it in my home state. From what I hear she is really excited about coming to Georgia and of course we are excited to have her. Also, since the beginning of this year KD has been awarded some post-season awards including Academic All-America and 2001 Verizon Academic All-District III All-America Team. Congrats to her on those accomplishments as well. Next time I have a free weekend I'll update this site with more Beat stuff since our girl is now one of them. |
"Kristin is the mold for a scholar-athlete. She is a cerebral, disciplined, compassionate person." - head coach Anson Dorrance |
"What I saw in Kristin, that I haven't seen in a couple of years, when the responsibility of the program was on her shoulders, she responded." - gk coach Chris Ducar |
"She is the best athlete. With somebody like that in the goal, I have all the confidence in the world in her." - teammate Danielle Borgman |
What people are saying about KD... |
"I think half the battle in athletics is to have this presence and this persona of 'I am going to dominate, I am going to win, I am the margin of victory.' And watching Kristin out there today, that's what I saw." - Anson Dorrance |
