UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. ââ'¬" Aurelia Meijer is someone that lights up the room, and coach Charlene Morett-Curtiss raves about her positive attitude and energy. As a freshman from Holland, Meijer certainly deserves the praise for her statistics on the field, but she also is making an impression with her teammates and the coaching staff.
"[Meijer] contacted us by sending a video through an international recruiting service and we just loved her speed with the ball, we loved her feistiness and her skills and when we got to meet her we just fell in love with her personality," said Morett-Curtiss.
Meijer is fitting right in with American culture, and jumped at the chance to play her college hockey in the United States.
"I wanted to speak English, I wanted to experience a new culture and I love the United States. Penn State is a really cool and well-known university, and everyone in Holland loves it," said Meijer.
