Brianna Heffington Wolfe moved to Trigg County from Florida prior to her eighth-grade year. Trigg County has just started a boys’ soccer team but did not have enough players to field a girls’ team. That first Trigg County team in 1992 went winless.
In Brianna’s first game at Trigg County in 1993, she scored a goal as the Wildcats beat Christian County 3-1 for the program’s first win. Playing forward for the boys’ team, Heffington scored five of the team’s 21 goals that season, and became the first player to score multiple goals in a game when she scored twice in a 3-0 win over Lyon County.
In her freshman season, Brianna became the second Trigg player to record a hat trick in a 5-2 win over Union County. That same season, the Wildcats won their first-ever game in the district tournament.
Brianna finished her career with 27 goals and five multi-goal games – both school records at the time of her graduation.
She was selected to play on the Kentucky Olympic Development team during high school and played on club soccer teams in Louisville, Evansville, and Nashville with the latter playing in Europe.
Brianna signed to play soccer at Southern Mississippi where she was a Conference USA All-Academic selection her first two seasons and won the Team Player of the Year Award.
She transferred to Tennessee-Chattanooga before her junior season. She played for the Mocs for two seasons and graduated with a degree in cardiopulmonary rehabilitation.
She served as a graduate assistant at Chattanooga for one year and was an assistant coach at Mercer University for two seasons.
Brianna and her husband Darryl have two children, Reagan and Davis. They reside in Macon, Georgia where she works as a cardiac rehabilitation coordinator.
Brianna still coaches soccer at the youth level and is a coach with the Georgia Olympic Development Program.
