If you haven’t heard of the crazy accomplishments of Brianna Moore, you must live under a rock.

A freshman on varsity soccer, Moore already has 15 goals.

That’s 15 goals in only seven games so far this season, making her the top scorer in the AVCTL I at the moment.

“To me I am very proud of myself,” she said. “That was always my goal since like eighth grade. I was like ‘whenever I get to high school, I just want to be super good.’ And so it just kind of feels like a good accomplishment like I am just proud of myself for doing it,” Moore said.

Her skill has come from playing soccer for over eight years since she was in second grade.

And before she wears the Panthers green and white for the spring, she plays all year, outdoor in the summer and indoor for the winter.

For Moore every game could be considered an emotional roller coaster before and after she scores.

“A lot of things go through my head, like whenever I have the ball I’ll panic, but then once it goes in, it feels relieving and I just feel stress free,” Moore said.

Being able to grow and get better the next three years, Moore learns a lot from her upperclassmen teammates.

“My favorite part is working with them and learning how the upperclassmen play and knowing that I’m on a good enough level to play with them,” Moore said.

She’s already looking forward to playing at the collegiate level.

“That’s one of my goals. I really want to play in college and I really want to get a scholarship really bad,” Moore said.
