Former Utah great and Mountain West Conference MVP, Amanda Feigt, is off on a great European adventure! After 3 years as a strength and conditioning coach at North Dakota State University in Fargo, Amanda decided to get back into some serious soccer. So she landed in the Women's Bundesliga in Germany. The German 1st division is probably the most competitive in the world, after the WPS here in the U.S.
Amanda, pictured above right in Berlin with fellow American Kat Tarr from the University of Missouri, was signed by the Tennis Borussia Berlin club for the second half of the season. She just arrived there and is training with her new team as the winter break draws to a close.
Tennis is currently in 11th place in the 12-team league and must climb at least one spot to 10th by the end of the season in order to avoid relegation. Amanda was signed in order to bring some speed to the front line. Ute fans will remember that Amanda was also a standout on the Utah track team, winning the MWC heptathlon championship in 2006.
