Jan Szmajda 22/23...Personal Statement
Hey, my name is Jan. To start off, my priorities are school, soccer, and family. Grades are always really important, and I am keeping high standards in both soccer and school. I am a center-back for FC United's MLS Next team, and I will graduate in 2025. I am a self-motivated player, always doing those extra things to get ahead of the competition. I am also really good at adapting to new tactics, and I am ready to adapt to coaches’ playing styles. Lastly, I’m not afraid to speak out on the field, and I am always vocal. I know I can be a solid addition to your program!

- I and our team HDS EAGLES 07 Premier, tied with Gunners 07 in the semifinals 2:2 regular time, with no goals in extra time, and finally, we lost in penalties 3:4. It was a very intense game. The Gunners tied 2:2 after a conversational penalty given 3 min to the end of the game. We tried hard but playing in 95 deg heat, short one-player the entire extra time was hard. It was an amazing tournament overall. My team proved their place in the top four teams in the USA.
