Last night, the Zionsville Community High School girls soccer teams hosted a ceremony to retire the jersey of former teammate Rachael Fiege, who passed away last year after an accident at Indiana University in Bloomington.

Since Fiege’s death her parents, teammates and friends have been spreading the message of safety at college, especially when it comes to alcohol-induced accidents. Her parents started a campaign titled “Rachael’s First Week” to educate parents and high school seniors of the dangers that could come their way during their first week at college.

Fiege’s jersey number 14 will no longer be used for the girls soccer teams at the high school.
