Anthony (AJ) Freithoffer '21 Recruiting Profile

I am 5'3 and I weigh 105 pounds. I have been a starting player on my club team and I also was a starting player on my school team. I was a captain for my club team this past year and I am trying my best to become one again this year. I was on a state league team 2 years ago and we did really well. I have been playing soccer for about 5 years. I think of myself as a leader on my team, and I lead my team in the games and at practice. I am usually the first one to get to practice and games and usually the last one to leave. One of my dreams is to play soccer in college and maybe even more on to play professional some day. One of the schools I would like to attend is Grand Canyon University because they have a great soccer team and great academics. Other than GCU I would like to attend a school with great academics and a great soccer team. My desired major is journalism because I want to be a sports journalist. My realistic athletic goals are to play at a great college, also to play as a freshman, and possibly be a starting player. Also I am always eager to help coaches with anything they need. Also last season I volunteered to help at an event called Top Soccer ( US Soccer Outreach Program) and it is an event that helps special needs children learn soccer skills.
