Season Assists
“Riley is a phenomenal talent, simply put. She is dynamic in many aspects and can be an absolute game-changer. She can post up as a target player while setting up others, turning on a dime for a blistering shot, or beat you off the dribble dynamically taking on players through a maze for a quality finish.”
Seong Ha
Head Coach - head coach of Mundelein High

The 5-foot-7 senior forward scored 23 goals and passed for nine assists this past season, leading the Spartans (14-2-3) to the Class 3A sectional semifinals.

She was a First Team All-State selection.

Academic Achievement

Philbin has maintained a weighted 4.06 GPA in the classroom. She has signed a National Letter of Intent to play soccer on scholarship at the University of Wisconsin this fall.

Exemplary Character

Philbin has volunteered locally with Feed My Starving Children and as a youth soccer coach.
