Former Boston University all-star Christina Reuter joined the Rutgers-Newark women’s soccer staff in late August of 2010, bringing a keen knowledge of goalkeeping to the program.
Reuter, the 2007 America East Goalkeeper of the Year, was a two-year starter and a four-time letterwinner for the Terriers who made three consecutive NCAA Division I Championship Tournament appearances (2005-2007). Boston University won American East championships in 2005 and 2007 with Reuter as the starter in goal after a shoulder injury erased all but three matches of her junior season. She recorded 13 career shutouts.
The Dumont, NJ, resident played on Terrier squads which compiled an overall mark of 51-22-12 while notching an impressive 24-5-4 record in American East play. She currently is tied for third in career saves (147) and ranks fourth in career goals against average (0.77) in the Terrier record book. Her 0.60 goals against average in 2005 is the third lowest mark in BU history. Her 14 saves against Stony Brook in 2007 ties the second highest single match total in school history.
Reuter earned first-team all-conference honors as a senior by recording five shutouts in 15 matches with a 0.66 goals against average. She allowed two goals in a game to Stanford in the season opener and to Wake Forest in the NCAA Tournament while holding the opponents to a goal or less in the other 13 matches.
As a sophomore, Reuter highlighted a personal 8-2-3 record between the pipes by posting five shutouts – including a 1-0 overtime over Connecticut in the opening round of the NCAA Tournament. She never allowed more the one goal in any of her 14 appearances.
The Madison, Wisconsin, native currently serves as a youth coach for the Arsenal World Class program.
She earned her Bachelor of Arts in psychology with a minor in business administration from Boston University in 2008 and then helped F.C. Slovacko in the Czech Republic to a second place finish in the nation’s top women’s professional league.
At LaFollette High School, Reuter lettered in soccer, volleyball and basketball while gaining membership in the National Honor Society.
