2015 HighlightsPersonal Statement
What does playing college soccer mean to me? It means being able to translate my passion for the game and my thirst for knowledge into a lifelong opportunity. I am looking for a school with a high level collegiate program but also can provide me with a solid educational foundation to carry on through graduate school. Throughout my years of playing soccer, it has offered me the opportunity to form solid friendships and experiences that will last a lifetime. Soccer is my worry free, happy place. Others wish they were on a beach or a cruise but for me, being on the field with a ball at my feet is mine. My strong suites as a player are my size, height, ability to win balls in the air to play the ball out of the back in transition, and always knowing where to be on the field. I feel I would be an asset to any college team at a high level.
I am blessed to have the opportunity to attended Bergen Catholic High School. My current GPA is an 89.4 out of 100. My grades are very important to me. Every quarter I strive for the academic accomplishments that will qualify me for honor and so far I have been able to achieve this almost every quarter. Another goal I have along with making honor roll is to get the grades that allow me to participate in honors courses. I find my attitude on the field and in the classroom one in the same, determined. I have been taught that dedication and hard work are the most important tools for success. I strive to exemplify those attributes on and off the field.
