Wyoming Area senior Samantha Shiner has accepted an offer to play field hockey at Stevens Institute of Technology and Science in Hoboken, NJ where she will major in Pre-Veterinary Science.
Shiner will be playing NCAA Division III field hockey at Stevens under an academic/athletic scholarship.
�??I�??ve been playing field hockey since I was in fifth grade,�?� said Shiner. �??I just love the sport.�?�
Stevens was not Shiner�??s only athletic offer though. She also received an offer from the University of Pennsylvania for Track and Field. She credits a lot of her success to her parents.
�??[My Parents] support me a lot. They bought me the necessary equipment and they paid to put me on a travel field hockey team to help get me exposed to schools and coaches,�?� said Shiner.
Shiner�??s plan after high school is to complete her four years at Stevens playing field hockey and pursing her degree. After getting her degree she plans to transfer out to another school to become a veterinarian.
