The Grace Christian women’s soccer program is excited to welcome another quality addition to the 2022 roster in Sky McElroy. Sky, a 5’2" midfielder for Dorr, MI, is the daughter of Angela and Ross McElroy and a sister to Cole.
Â
Sky was a standout player for the Hudsonville Hornets homeschool team, earning 2021 Midwest All-Regional Team as well as the "Field Controller Award." She has been a starter for the past four seasons on the varsity team and served as a team captain as a senior. The Hornets placed First in the Midwest Gold Division Tournament twice while Sky was on the team, as well as finishing fourth in the Evansville Gold Division Championship twice.
Â
“I am thrilled to add Sky to this year’s class," said Grace Head Coach Mike Riemersma. "She is a perfect fit for us as a player and person. She will add more ‘grit’ to the midfield we already have and gives us more depth at that position (which I believe is key). I love how hard she plays and her work ethic is second to none. I am looking forward to seeing how she improves and elevates her game throughout her career here.”
Â
"I chose to go to grace because I loved how close I saw the team was," said Sky. "I knew going into it that I wanted to be able to find a team that could as close as my high school team was for me. I always wanted to play college soccer and Grace seemed like the perfect fit. I wanted to go here for my education because I heard so many good things about how helpful the teachers are and how they want to help you thrive and see you do good in their class."
