Alexis
Johnson
While playing midfield for the Shelton girls' soccer
team and playmg for the Shelton girls' rugby 7s and
15s teams, there's one skill that makes Alexis John-
son stand out.
The Shelton senior hits hard.
"Last year was my first year
playing rugby but I ended up get-
ting the Hardest Hitter Award,"
Johnson said.
She has played soccer for nine
years in multiple positions but said
she is mainly a midfielder.
"That's the one that stuck,"
Johnson said. "I can run a lot and
I'm really fast, I seem to get the
midfielder position more and I'm
better at it."
Johnson said she's stuck with soccer
so long because she just likes it a lot.
"I play rugby too, but soccer's a lot of fun and I like
all my teammates," she said.
Though she enjoys soccer and said she wants to
keep playing, Johnson said she's not hoping to play at
the college level.
"It's just a lot of work," she said. "If I was good
enough, I might try, but I know I couldn't get a schol-
arship with it."
She said she's not sure yet if she'll go to college at all.
"I'm going to have to go to some kind of school.
There's a dental hygenist program I can go into.
That's really what I've been thinking about."
Johnson said people think she's weird because she
loves going to the dentist.
"I love how my teeth feel after an appointment,"
she said.
As a 3.5 GPA student at Shelton High School,
Johnson is currently enrolled in human anatomy,
sports medicine and sociology, among other classes.
"It can be a bit dreadful, but I like it," she said.
When she's not roughing girls up on the soccer and
rugby felds or in class, Johnson said she's doing her
homework, eating, sleeping or hanging out with friends.
One thing she said most people wouldn't guess
about her is that she's a nice person.
"A lot of people think I'm mean but I'm nice," John-
son said. "Maybe I should start smiling."
