Early life

Raised in Hartland, Wisconsin, Bloomer attended Arrowhead High School. [2] She played ECNL club soccer for FC Wisconsin Eclipse. She committed to Wisconsin during her sophomore year. [3]

College career

Bloomer spent her first two years with the Wisconsin Badgers as a backup to Caitlyn Clem. [4] She became the primary keeper in the 2018 season, starting all 22 games and keeping 8 clean sheets. She had two shutouts in the NCAA tournament before falling to Stanford. [5] She had a breakout 2019 season with 12 shutouts in 22 games, helping the Badgers go undefeated to win the Big Ten Conference regular-season title and again reaching the NCAA tournament round of 16. [5] After the season, she was named first-team All-Big Ten, first-team All-American, and the Big Ten Goalkeeper of the Year. [5]

Bloomer kept 7 clean sheets in 14 games in the 2020 season (pushed to the following spring due to the COVID-19 pandemic). She was named first-team All-Big Ten, second-team All-American, and the Big Ten Goalkeeper of the Year. Despite reaching the Big Ten tournament final, the Badgers missed the NCAA tournament.
