“I have had the privilege of both playing and coaching alongside Courtney Dike, and she consistently exemplifies leadership, professionalism, and an elite work ethic. She elevates every environment she’s in through her commitment to excellence, collaborative mindset, and natural ability to mentor and empower those around her.”
Yolanda Thomas, Assistant Coach at Orlando Pride
“Courtney Dike is a passionate and driven person. She has gained tremendous experience through her endeavors both on and off the soccer field. Her willingness to work hard and to set a terrific example for her peers earned her the respect and admiration of teammates and opponents alike. She is a natural leader who can help to inspire people to achieve great things. I have no doubt that Courtney will be successful in any project that she undertakes.”
Colin Carmichael, Cowgirl Soccer Head Coach at Oklahoma State University
“Courtney is a goal-oriented, analytical individual, who has a passion to be challenged and maximize her ability. She is the type of person who could figure out how to be impactful and perform at a high level across a broad variety of careers.”
Kyle Patrick, Founder & Managing Partner at Maremcia
“Interacting with Courtney throughout her undergraduate and graduate courses gave me a deeper appreciation for the discipline required for student-athletes to excel both academically and athletically. Courtney distinguished herself in both areas through hard work, dedication, and consistency—qualities that continue to drive her success in her post-soccer career and in the accounting profession”.
Dr. Brad Lawson, PhD, CPA, Associate Professor Oklahoma State University
“As Courtney's former English teacher, I have watched her grow in her athletic and academic endeavors over the last decade. When she was in high school I wrote that "Courtney’s successes in soccer are due only in part to her athletic abilities: she is also a great teammate, a leader by example, and a good sport." That sentiment has carried over to all aspects of her adult life, and I am proud that our lives intersected briefly as instructor and student. Her upward trajectory in life represents the power of discipline, mentorship, focus, friendship, and professionalism in all corners of life”.
