Meet the Bishops: Get to know a little about Emily Sheridan of the Ohio Wesleyan women's soccer team.
Name: Emily Sheridan
Class year: Junior
Major: Nutrition
How/Why did you choose Ohio Wesleyan?
I chose Ohio Wesleyan University because of the countless opportunities that are available to students. The small class sizes have helped me find my true passions and form relationships with my professors. I even got to travel to Italy and Switzerland for a research grant. Additionally, the ability to compete on both the soccer team and the lacrosse team at the collegiate level is a great experience and something I had always wanted to do.
How/Why did you choose your major?
I really enjoyed the health and human kinetics classes that I took my first year at Ohio Wesleyan. I really enjoy doing research projects and nutrition has a lot of research opportunities. My major allows me to go many different routes in graduate school. The health field is always growing and the demand for workers is at an all-time high.
Do you have any pre-event rituals or superstitions?
I always put my socks on the wrong feet. I put my cleats on first and then my shin guards.
How/why did you choose your event/position?
I love the excitement of being part of goals, whether it is an assist or goal. Being a forward allows me to be creative.
What are your plans after graduation?
After graduation, I plan on attending graduate school to become an occupational therapist. I may also be interested in coaching.
Early bird or night owl?
Night Owl
If you were able to go back in time and give younger you advice, what would it be?
If I could give my younger self advice, I would tell myself to always look at the positives in every situation and never stop working hard.
