“Skylar is the real deal—she might be the fastest player I have ever seen with the ball at her feet. Once she gets space, no one in Nebraska can defend her. She single-handedly beat us in the championship game.”

John Carlson

Head Coach of Skutt Catholic High

Athletic Excellence

The 5-foot-3 junior forward led the Antlers to a 16-3 record and the Class B state championship this past season. Heinrich scored 31 goals and passed for 14 assists, including both tallies in a 2-0 win over Skutt Catholic High in the state final. She recorded 10 multi-goal games including four hat tricks. The captain of the Journal Star’s 2018 Super-State Team, she concluded her junior year with 102 goals and 21 assists.

Academic Achievement

Heinrich has maintained a B-plus average in the classroom. Taking advantage of NCAA early signing rules, Heinrich intends to ink a financial-aid agreement that paves the way for her to enroll early at Creighton University. She will graduate from high school this December and begin collegiate classes in the spring semester.

Exemplary Character

Heinrich has volunteered locally with the Nebraska Humane Society and as a youth soccer coach.
