Student Athlete Spotlight: Julia Granucci

The Catalyst / ROBERT ROJAS / THE CATALYST

Granucci (‘21) is not afraid to be aggressive.

Julia Granucci is one of three freshmen on the varsity soccer team. When asked how she feels about that, she says, “In the beginning, I was very nervous and honestly pretty scared to play with the varsity team, but my feelings quickly changed. Once we started to practice, I realized that no one cared about what grade I was in, but about how hard I worked, that I was a team player, and my well-being.”

Granucci feels confident about the team’s season, commenting, “I feel that our… season is going okay so far in terms of our record. I love that over the past few month we have bonded and are beginning to work very well together on the soccer field.”

She added, “I love that playing NDB soccer pushes me to be my the best with the support from a group of the most caring teammates one could ask for.”
