Personal: Born on 4/16/86 in St. Paul, Minnesota. Her parents Jennifer Christensen(volleyball) and Allan Haig(club hockey) played at Iowa State. Is majoring in marketing with a minor in sport administration and would like to play professional soccer, go on a mission trip, travel and eventually get a "real" job. Has two siblings, Andrea(24), who played soccer at Wayne State and Phillip(18), who will play football and baseball at Illinois. Her biggest thrill in sports was hearing the national anthem before a match against Congo while playing for the US Soccer U-20 National Team in Russia. Likes to hang out with her amazing teammates, play pretty much any sport and relax "on the many fine front porches the city of Louisville has to offer" in her spare time. Joe Mauer, Ronaldinho and Brett Favre are her favorite athletes, but she cheers on the Vikings and the Twins. The Notebook, Hitch and the Spiderman movies are her favorite flicks. Likes to watch Grey's Anatomy on TV. Cereal, popcorn and coffee are her favorite foods. Would like to share a meal with Jesus, Lance Armstrong and Harry Potter. Best athlete she has faced is the US Women's National Team. If she could be anyone for a day it would be U of L AD Tom Jurich.
