On the club level, Rachel plays soccer for Albertson Fury 91. The Lindenhurst High School senior will attend Syracuse University this fall along with Fury teammate Brittany Anghel.

At Lindenhurst High School, she was honored as All-County twice in soccer, All-League in both winter and spring track for the mile, 400-meter hurdles and 400-meter relay and received the Suffolk Zone Award. Ironically, Rachel's favorite food is zeppoles, perhaps not the greatest choice to eat before an important soccer game or track meet.

"Rachel is your prototype central midfielder. Great engine, superb tackler and a battle driven attitude to win everything in the midfield area," commented Fury Director of Football Paul Riley. "She is simple and clever on the ball. Going to be a vital player for Syracuse for all four years."

Founded in 2006 as a Women's Premier Soccer League franchise, the Long Island Fury won the WPSL national championship in both 2006 and 2009. Six Long Island Fury alumnae--Tina DiMartino, Kelly Henderson, Ali Long, Rebecca Moros, Alex Singer and Sue Weber--used their phenomenal play for the Fury to become current professional players in Women's Professional Soccer. Their former coach, Paul Riley, now coaches the Philadelphia Independence franchise in that same league.
