The best defender in the biz is back on the pitch.
After taking a year off to focus on life, Coupeville High School grad Nezi Keiper is suiting up for the women’s soccer team at Edmonds College this fall.
The Tritons, who play in the Northwest Athletic Conference, kick off their season with a pair of friendlies this week, with the regular season starting August 28.
Edmonds has a 12-game schedule which runs through Oct. 30, with the possibility of playoff action after that.
Keiper, a slam-dunk inductee into the Coupeville Sports Hall o’ Fame after her graduation in 2023, was a standout student/athlete for the Wolves.
The hardest-hitting player on the field as a middle school football player, she was a star basketball and soccer athlete once she hit high school.
Keiper was a team captain and First-Team All-Conference pick for the Wolf pitch squad, joining with running mate Carolyn Lhamon to provide leadership and grit.
“You shall not pass!”
