Meyer, a defensive midfielder from Amanda, Ohio, started 15 matches for Amanda-Clearcreek High School as a senior. The four-year varsity performer and three-year captain was twice named to the Mid-State League First Team and was selected to the All-District Second Team as a senior.

"Emily is just a great person and I am so happy that she has committed to play for the Lady Cougars next year,” said MVNU head coach Jonathan Meade. "I really like how she strives for excellence in everything she does. That is a quality I look forward to her adding to our team. She is a versatile player and I see her helping us at a variety of midfield and defensive positions. She is a thinker and understands the game well. I know she will be successful at the next level.”

"I appreciate Emily’s commitment to her faith as she is very active in her church,” added Meade. "She is also an excellent student. I look forward to having her on the team next year.”

In addition to playing soccer at Amanda-Clearcreek, Meyer was inducted into National Honor Society and served as its president. She was a three-year member of the Foreign Language Club and a four-year member of the Varsity Club, and she was selected as the Winter Homecoming Court queen in 2008.

"There are several reasons why I chose to attend MVNU,” said Meyer. "I like the campus because it is small and easy to get around. Everyone seems really nice, and everyone seems to know everybody. Plus, it is close to home.”

MVNU posted a 15-7-1 overall record in 2007 and was ranked No. 25 in the final NAIA national poll. The Lady Cougars also claimed a share of their fourth American Mideast Conference South Division title in the past five years, and MVNU has won two National Christian College Athletic Association national titles (2003 and 2006).
