Penn State goalkeeper Jenny Rizzo has been selected to the United States' U21 junior national team and the one person she has to thank is her fourth grade gym teacher.
"I actually never knew what field hockey was until I came to Pennsylvania." Rizzo said. "I grew up in Long Island, New York and they didn't have much of that out there. My gym teacher in fourth grade was the coach at the high school level. We used to play in gym class and she really thought I had potential. She told me to come out to their camps, so I started going to camp.
