Bio
Sarrah grew up in Downers Grove, Illinois, and began playing soccer at age eight with Roadrunners Soccer Club. In high school, she joined Darien Dynamo under coach Chris Karabatsis while excelling as a multi-sport athlete at Downers Grove South. She was a varsity player in both soccer and basketball, earning all-conference and all-sectional honors, and was named the school’s Multi-Sport Athlete of the Year in 2012. As a senior, she captained the varsity soccer team to a third-place finish in the state tournament.
Sarrah went on to play Division I soccer at Valparaiso University, where she was named solo captain as both a junior and senior. One of her proudest college moments was scoring the championship-winning goal in the 2014 Horizon League Conference Final. She graduated with a degree in Kinesiology and double minors in psychology and biology before earning her Doctorate in Physical Therapy from Midwestern University.
Today, Sarrah balances her passion for soccer and sports medicine. She coaches multiple teams for both Wizards Oak Brook and LG Celtics, while also working full-time as a physical therapist with Revolution in Glen Ellyn.
