Sarah Sinnott, a senior on the Fox Chapel soccer team, scored three goals in a game against Shaler last week. She’s been playing soccer since she was 4 and is also on the lacrosse team. Sinnott, a center mid and forward, has given a verbal commitment to play at Pitt.

“I loved the coaching staff at Pitt and knew that it was an academically well-rounded school,” she said.

Here’s a closer look at Sarah:
