A two-sport standout in soccer and basketball at Ardrey Kell H.S., Montgomery is coming off a season that saw her earn 2022 United Soccer Coaches Spring Girls High School All-Atlantic Region, SoMeck Conference Player of the Year and All-SoMeck Conference honors while helping guide her squad to SoMeck Conference and West Regional titles and a North Carolina Class 4A State Championship runner-up finish. A team captain and nominee for 2022 North Carolina Gatorade State Player of the Year, the center back totaled nine goals and seven assists as a junior while anchoring a defense that allowed just 10 goals and posted 19 shutouts over a 25-2-1 season. Included in her efforts were a pair of goals during a 3-1 playoff victory over West Forsyth and a key assist in the last minute of regulation to help tie Cardinal Gibbons and send the state title match to overtime. As a sophomore for the SoMeck Conference Co-Champions in 2021, Montgomery scored six goals and dished six assists over 14 matches on the way to receiving all-conference, all-region and team defensive player of the year accolades. With her CSA Charlotte Soccer Academy club program, Montgomery has served as a team captain and reaped a pair of Mid-Atlantic All-Region ECNL First Team honors (2021 & 2022) while helping her squad to the top seed in the 2022 ECNL Playoffs in Seattle, Wash.
