Macy Elizabeth Enneking (born September 25, 2001) is an American soccer player who plays as a goalkeeper. She played college soccer for the Iowa Hawkeyes, where she holds the program record for career shutouts.

Early life and college career

Enneking was born in Columbus, Ohio, to Mike and Lisa Enneking, and has two siblings. She began playing soccer as a goalkeeper at age four. She attended Hilliard Bradley High School in Hilliard, Ohio, where she played as a forward on the soccer, but played in goal for her ECNL club team Ohio Premier Soccer Club.

Iowa Hawkeyes

Enneking became the starting goalkeeper for the Iowa Hawkeyes in the second half of her freshman season, leading the Big Ten Conference in goals against average and keeping 6 clean sheets in 10 games. She made 14 saves to keep shutouts during the last two rounds of the 2020 Big Ten tournament, leading the Hawkeyes to their first conference title in program history, and was named the most outstanding defensive player of the tournament. Iowa won their opening match at the NCAA tournament for the first time. Enneking split duties with Monica Wilhelm during the next two seasons, recording 3 clean sheets in 11 starts. She missed a month and a half of her junior season due to nose and orbital fractures.

Enneking became team captain and started every game in her senior season in 2023, keeping a program-record 12.5 clean sheets in 22 games. She led Iowa to their second Big Ten tournament title, allowing only one goal in three games. That off-season, Iowa introduced virtual reality headsets for goalkeeper training. In her fifth season in Iowa City, Enneking made a career-high 59 saves and kept 11.5 clean sheets in 22 games, helping Iowa make the third round of the NCAA tournament for the first time and set a program record with 15 wins. She left Iowa as the program leader in career wins (41) and shutouts (33.5) and fifth in career saves (226).
