Justin Blanch '12 Recruiting Profile

I would like to introduce myself to you. Currently, I am a senior at West Seneca East High School in western New York. I have been a varsity soccer starter for four years now and this year I am one of the captains of the team. I am 5'9" and 140 pounds.  This year the team finished with a 10-7 overall record and we beat our crosstown rival for the first time in eight years.  Personal recognitions that I recieved included playing in the Western NewYork Senior All Star Game and being named a second team All-ECIC all star.   My junior year I recieved the honor of being placed on the all ecic(A-2) second team all stars also.  As a sophmore I was placed on the all ecic(A-2) third team all stars. As player I offer many attributes. On the field I define myself as a playmaker. I will set up and be part of numerous scoring opportunities which translates into goals and assists. In addition, I am a hard worker. I put forth 100% on the field and off the field to make sure the team and myself are heading in the right direction. Where I would like to go to college is a general area. The ideal geographic locaton would be on the eastern coast but if the opportunity presents itself I would definitely consider going to a school in the central or western areas of the country. Along with the location of the school, the size of the school is a variable. I would opt to attend a large or medium sized school but again, if I get an opportunity to go to a small school I will consider it. As majors and educational possibilities go, currently I am undecided but I am leaning towards something in biological sceiences or bioengineering. In the future, it is my intention to play as a college soccer athlete. I look to play in divisions one, two, or three.  It is important that I have decent playing time as a college player in my college career. I don't want to end up sitting the bench for four years. In the end, what I am looking for is a chance to play on the college pitch!
