The San Diego Wave FC will open its season this tonight at Snapdragon Stadium with a new addition that’s a familiar face here in San Diego.
"But closer and closer to the draft, it seemed to be more and more realistic," Enge said."And it was just so fun, especially to be there with my family and so many friends and know that I was coming home.”
That’s especially important since half of the Wave’s starting lineup could be gone for part of the season because of the World Cup this summer.Growing up, sports has always been a part of Enge's life. That is not surprising, considering both her parents were athletes. Her dad, Brian, played soccer for Harvard and the Wichita Wings. Her mom, Cici, played lacrosse at Harvard and is the current middle school girl’s lacrosse coach at Pacific Ridge School in Carlsbad.
“I scouted her early on, and I saw her," he said."She's great ability, so technical, so intelligent and the work ethic is what really sold me on her. Just such a hard worker." With San Diego being a huge soccer town, Enge said she’s looking forward to the Wave’s season opener this Saturday.
