Myah Merino spent her early childhood dancing in her aunt’s studio, where she learned the footwork of tap and became proficient in jazz dancing. After she picked up on soccer, Merino kept leveling up until she landed herself a position as a forward on the University of Idaho’s soccer team, now on her fifth year.
Merino began playing when she was 9-years-old after her neighbors encouraged her to play with the neighborhood children.
Merino enjoyed playing it so much that, a year later, she signed up for club soccer with Carlsbad United, now known as San Diego Galaxy.
