Being the coach's daughter in sixth grade, when the goalie position was vacated Karli Jo Weisser had to step up.

It stuck, and six years later Weisser is going to play Division 1 lacrosse at San Diego State University, her dream school.

The Adrenaline All-American hopes to grow into a leader at her new school, and already shares a close connection with her class of teammates.

In this podcast episode, Weisser shares her experience in the recruiting process, and her unique take on the technique to get to her top school.

An experience filled with trusted clubs, coaches, and teammates, Weisser enjoys a more conservative approach to the recruiting process, and shares various tips for younger goalies looking into the next level.

Weisser shares how she's getting ready for the upcoming transition into college lacrosse, enhancing her skills and going above and beyond with her summer workout packet.

A quote she shares from past coaches sits close to her heart— "If you're not going to train insane, you're going to remain the same". Weisser aimed to stay competitive after committing to San Diego State during her junior year, a mindset not typically shared by other college commits.

Her work ethic and attitude towards the mental and physical side of goalie is intense and worthwhile, and she spends time coaching younger goalies, while also receiving a different perspective of the position from the coaching side.

A great talk with a wonderful athlete, excited to see what she accomplishes in college!
