A native of North Potomac, Md., Hearin graduated magna cum laude from UMBC with a degree in history in 2006. She appeared in 69 games and started 63 for the Retrievers during her college career.
Hearin excelled on and off the field at UMBC, earning America East Conference all-conference second team and all-rookie honors in 2003 and making the America East championship all-tournament team in 2005.
She was a tri-captain of the Retrievers from three seasons from 2004 through 2006 and served as president of the UMBC Student-Athlete Advisory Committee in 2004-05 and 2005-06.
