EDWARDSVILLE – When Brynn Miracle was the first Tiger introduced at the team’s Senior Night against Belleville West, a long list of her accomplishments at Edwardsville High School was read off as well.
She can now add Intelligencer MVP to that list.
Miracle is the Intelligencer’s MVP for Edwardsville girls soccer after scoring six goals and two assists to help the Tigers to an 11-4 record and regional championship in her senior season.
“Brynn sets the tone. She has such a great work ethic. If she’s on, everybody behind her is on. They follow suit with Brynn when she’s out there on the field,” EHS coach Abby Federmann said. “She is so positive and such a great teammate. She’s gritty and is one that holds herself to a really high standard.”
Miracle scored in six different games this past season, including two postseason goals. She scored the second of her team’s four goals in a 4-0 win over Quincy in the Class 3A regional semifinal inside the District 7 Sports Complex and the team’s lone goal in a 3-1 loss to O’Fallon in the sectional semifinals at O’Fallon High School.
After losing last season to the coronavirus, Miracle ended her varsity career with nine goals and three assists.
MVPs
The Intelligencer is celebrating the MVPs of the 2020-21 school year with stories throughout July and the first week of August. There will be Edwardsville High School MVPs for each sport and small-school MVPs with Metro-East Lutheran and Father McGivney student-athletes eligible.
Any time Miracle was on the field, she was a threat to either score or set a teammate up for a goal.
“She’s such a threat because she is so dang fast. Teams focused on her to shut her down and it’s just a matter of how she reacts it. I think she did a good job with it this season for the most part. She was able to react to that pressure,” Federmann said. “She’s also a very unselfish player. While she put a lot of pressure on herself to score, I think she quickly realized that she has people behind her that could do the job.
“Even in the games that she didn’t have a goal, she made such an impact.”
As a player with such high expectations of herself, Miracle was able to overcome the mental aspect of soccer, as well.
“She was also the kid that could flip it,” Federmann said. “There are a lot of athletes that once they get stuck in that mindset, they can’t get out. Multiple times last season she was getting frustrated with it because the ball wasn’t following or she was getting calls she didn’t think she could get. It would take her a minute to breathe and reset and she would come back and score the next time she gets on the field.
“She’s tough. She has a very tough mentality.”
Next up for Miracle is Drake, which is located in Des Moines, Iowa.
Miracle was also considering Indiana State, Youngstown State and Loyola-Chicago.
“It wasn’t a tough decision at all,” Miracle said. “I was looking at several other schools but that was my top choice. Whenever I visited there, I was able to meet with the girls on the team and the coaches. I really loved the campus. I knew right away that was where I wanted to be.”
The Bulldogs are coming off a 2-4-2 shortened season. They went 8-10-1 in 2019.
“It’s a good fit for her,” Federmann said.
