Northern Kentucky University women’s soccer coach Bob Sheehan has announced the addition of Katie Brock to the program.

“We are excited to announce that Katie will be joining our program,” said Sheehan. “We welcome Katie to the program. Katie is a skillful attacking player who has achieved at a very high level on both her high school team and her club team.

“She is a tall target and a strong finisher around the goal.”

Brock is a 5-foot-9 forward who comes to NKU after an illustrious career at Cincinnati Country Day School. She’s a part of a senior class that went 71-6-5 with the program and won two state titles in 2018 and 2019. She has also played club soccer with the Cincinnati Development Academy.

This past season, the Cincinnati native garnered a first team All-State selection and was named the Miami Valley Conference Player of the Year after leading the conference in goals.

Brock has also been a first team All-City and All-League honoree, as well as an All-Star Select member for the past two years.

Brock joins an NKU program that posted a 9-9 overall record last season. The Norse finished 5-4 in the Horizon League and advanced to the semifinals of the conference tournament, where they dropped a 1-0 overtime decision to Illinois-Chicago.
