Salvatore Madera '17 Recruiting Profile

    I have been involved with the game of soccer since I was just a little kid. My passion for the game will always stick with me no matter what. I believe I can be a valuable contributor to a college program that fits me right. When I first started playing soccer I played forward, over the years I moved to outside back, where I found myself comfortable as I am today in that position. During my high school career I was pretty versatile and played forward, outside mid, outside back, and during my senior year, center defensive mid for a few games. I am a 3 year varsity player, a 2 time all academic player, and during my senior year I also received all conference and the coaches award for my team, as well as being named a captain.  Outside of soccer I am an honor student who has the drive to work hard in any setting.

    In college, my intention is to enter the business world and obtain a degree, focusing more on finance. As for college soccer, I plan to work as hard as it takes to be the best teammate and contributor that I know I can be on and off the field. I will make sure to always work to improve both mentally and physically throughout my college soccer career. I plan to show respect and dignity for my team, coaches, and everyone else.
