English All Time Goal Scorer in School History In the fall, USJ’s Morgan English not only surpassed a total of 150 goals for her high school career, but now holds the all-time school record for the Lady Bruins for career goals scored. She has reached the milestone in just her junior season. English etched her name in the history books alongside some of the best to ever put on a USJ uniform, passing the previous goal scoring record set at 149 by Honeye Heydari. English came on to the local high school girls soccer scene a few years ago as an eighth grader, quickly establishing herself as an elite player, eventually leading to two All-State selections, and last year’s District MVP award. “It means a lot for sure, the players that have come through and kind of hit those marks over the years are phenomenal players and they’re some of the ones I look up to the most,” said English. “I absolutely love the game, and you just got to do what you love. When I come out here, I absolutely love it, and it drives me to keep getting better.” 17
