The Kimball Union Girl's Varsity Soccer program has established itself as a formidable force within the New England Preparatory School Athletic Council (NEPSAC) competition. Their unwavering dedication and relentless pursuit of excellence have yielded admirable results over the past decade. From 2011 to 2015, they consistently advanced to the quarterfinal and semifinal rounds, showcasing their tenacity and skill on the field. However, their crowning achievement came in 2016 when they emerged triumphant as the NEPSAC Class C Champions, etching their name in the annals of the school's athletic history. Undeterred by their success, the team continued to demonstrate their prowess, securing semifinal berths in both the 2017 and 2018 New England Class C tournaments, solidifying their status as a perennial powerhouse in the region.
The team will be led by Kimball Union Academy alumni Bella Parento ’20. Parento brings five years of NCAA Division I athletic experience to the Hilltop, having competed in women’s ice hockey at both the University of Vermont and St. Lawrence University, where she earned her master’s degree in Leadership. During her time at KUA, Parento served as captain of both the girls’ varsity soccer and girls’ varsity ice hockey teams, and helped lead the soccer program to two New England Class C semifinal appearances. She was a two-time All-NEPSAC and All-Lakes Region selection in soccer and ice hockey, participated in the U.S. Youth Soccer Olympic Development Program, and was invited to participate in the U.S. National Soccer Camp. A passionate leader on and off the field, Parento is excited to return to the Upper Valley and give back to the institution where she developed as a student-athlete.
