The versatile senior scored the only goal for her team in a 2-1 loss in the Nov. 19 All-State Game. A week earlier, she scored the game-winning goal in overtime to beat Eastern Tech, 2-1, for the state Class 2A championship, River Hill's second straight state crown.
"She's a quiet girl. She just goes about her business," Hawks coach Brian Song said, "but with the game on the line, she usually, somehow, gets herself in the right spot at the right time for an assist or a goal."
A first-team All-State selection this fall, Suter was a first-team All-Metro pick as a junior. She scored 19 goals and had six assists this season as the Hawks finished 18-1-1 with the No. 1 ranking. She finished her career with 52 goals and 26 assists.
Suter, who has committed to play soccer at Johns Hopkins, played club soccer for the Bethesda Rapids. She plans to major in economics or business and has a 3.9 grade point average.
