For those that don't know yet...the University of Utah campus is snuggled up against the foothills of the Wasatch mountain range. So, it is often referred to as the "hill". Well, another Viewmont Viking has agreed to come and join the Utes next year.
Viewmont High School has produced three current Ute players: redshirt sophomore goal keeper Emalee Rogers, sophomore defender Jena Roberts, and freshman forward Erin Dalley. And next year, Mallory Mitamura will join the team. Mallory has come to the Utah Women's Soccer Academy (our summer camp program) the last two years and we've gotten to know her game well.
Mallory is a versatile player, who has grown up with the Utah Rush soccer club. She can play anywhere in midfield or the back row very comfortably. She reads the game very well on offense and defense and is very comfortable on the ball. We like her versatility and soccer sense a lot.
That makes 4 Viewmont players in 4 years...we'll have to see if the streak continues.
Welcome to Mallory and her family!
