Katie Sullivan left her home state of Pennsylvania to play college soccer but she’s quickly become a thorn in the side of a number of local colleges who have been picked off this season by Johns Hopkins.
The Villa Joseph Marie graduate from Yardley hopes to add one more familiar opponent from Pennsylvania to the list of teams the unbeaten Blue Jays have defeated this season in today’s national semifinal against Messiah in Salem, Virginia.
Messiah, the most decorated Division III women’s team with six national titles, played the Blue Jays to a 1-1 draw in Grantham in September and since tying Carnegie Mellon four days later in the Pittsburgh, Sullivan and company have put together a 19-game winning streak that has propelled them to within two wins of a trophy.
