The 22-year-old soccer star grew up in Ventura County and was honored with a memorial at her high school.
As a goalie, Katie Meyer threw her body into over a thousand unflinching dives to make game-winning saves. She helped lead Stanford University to a 2019 NCAA championship with several late-game blocks, but before that she made numerous saves at Newbury Park High School in Ventura County.
Like most students from Gen Z, Meyer shared her life over social media. Meyer posted TikTok videos of herself in her Stanford dorm room getting ready to go out, sometimes putting on makeup and picking her outfit. She shared videos from a hospital bed when she had knee surgery and her own recovery in the gym. She shared her love of Lego bricks and Star Wars along with being a role model to younger athletes.Thirteen-year-old Grace Ae stood outside the memorial with her parents, Laura and Vince.
He read one of his last text messages to her after he visited her at Stanford: “I had the best time seeing you. And just being with you. I hope you have an amazing day. I love you, dad.”Gina Meyer, Katie’s mother, said, “She came into this world a total spitfire of energy.” Her friends and family spoke before a large picture of Meyer and a #19 jersey, which she wore at Stanford.
“It’s not about what she did, but who she was,” Deemer said. “Even in death, even in the worst circumstances imaginable she can’t help but inspire us.”
