A-TEAM ATHLETEJordan Heide10:47 AM PDT on Saturday, April 5, 2008Newport's Jordan Heide is one of the top girls water polo players in the country. She's All-State, and All-America. She's also a student leader and a peer tutor. Jordan Heide is the newest member of the Sylvan A-Team. Growing up, she was an accomplished multi-sport athlete playing soccer, basketball, softball and volleyball. Then, three years ago, she was diagnosed with two herniated disks in her back. It put an end to Heide's career as a land sport athlete, but the doctors gave her the go ahead to continue with something she had always loved to play - water polo. Last spring, Jordan was at the top of her game, helping lead the Newport Knights to a state championship in water polo. After high school, Jordan would like to continue playing water polo. Her college of choice is Brown University. Jordan carries a 3.95 grade point average, and her career goals include journalism and law. Do you know someone we should honor? Send in a nomination! |
