As a freshman at Boston College, Mewis recorded five goals and six assists, and was second on the team in shots taken, bettered only by fellow Eagle and United States U-17 teammate Vicki DiMartino.
Mewis captained the inaugural United States U-17 women's national soccer team that was runner-up at the 2008 FIFA U-17 Women's World Cup in New Zealand, alongside North Carolina's Amber Brooks and Portland's Cloee Colohan. Her younger sister Samantha was also a member of that squad.[1] Over the course of the tournament, Mewis scored two goals and was the recipient of the Bronze Ball as the tournament's third-best player.[2]
