Whitefish's Norah Schmidt Signs with Gonzaga for Soccer

Norah Schmidt, Whitefish High School's goalie, has officially signed with Gonzaga to continue her academic and athletic career. Schmidt made the news official on Thursday in front of a large crowd featuring family, coaches, teammates and friends. Schmidt helped lead the Whitefish Lady Bulldog Soccer team to the Class "A" Championship this year. Their first Title in 17 years, a 3-1 win over rival Columbia Falls. I had the pleasure of catching up with Nora to talk to her about the decision.

Gonzaga competes in the West Coast Conference. For more on Bulldog Sports stay tuned to 1240 SAM.
