Joan Gettemeyer played on the first women’s soccer team in school history, and was a starter on the team from 1981 to 1984. Gettemeyer finished her career with 121 points, which still ranks third on the UMSL all-time scoring list. She is fourth in career goals scored with 47 and fourth in career assists with 27. Gettemeyer was a four-time all-region selection and was a three-time All-American. In 1984, she was selected as an Academic All-American for her accomplishments off the field. Gettemeyer helped lead the Riverwomen to three straight post season appearances, and in 1982 led UMSL to the NCAA Tournament as the number two seed nationally. She would score the game winning goal against Harvard in the Elite Eight matchup and send UMSL to the NCAA Final Four where the team lost to eventual national champion North Carolina. Joan becomes part of the first family connection in the UMSL Sports Hall of Fame, joining her sister, Jan, who was inducted in the inaugural class in 2001.
