Today at 1pm local time, Carroll County High School graduate 🎓 and current Emory & Henry student, Natalie Harris was in uniform for a NCAA Women’s Lacrosse game.
At 1:14 pm, Miss Harris entered the contest and officially began her Collegiate Lacrosse career. Having been around this motivated young Lady for a few years now, I can say that nothing surprises me about Harris setting a bar in a high place and then clearing said bar.
Southern Wesleyan University was the opponent so we have that as a footnote in the story. I was a little bummed about the fact that it took place so far from Carroll County, meaning Shelia and Marion Harris were having to watch it in the same manner as I did.
Trying not to mistep in the moment, Harris just became the first Lady Cavalier to graduate from Carroll County High School 🏫 and then move on to College and play in an NCAA sport that wasn’t offered at her High School. To add an extra layer of security, I will add a sentence saying that I’ve had the privilege of dining with her and her Family 👪.
Impressive thing, to pick up a Sport and play it well enough to compete in a NCAA D2 contest a few months later. I can picture a very proud set of Parents and in the same moment invision two equally driven Sisters thinking I could do that too.
A tip of the Ball Cap to Natalie Harris 👏
