High School and C...Personal Statement
I am mainly a Striker or an Outside Midfielder for Jersey Shore Area High School. I will graduate from Jersey Shore Area High School with the class of 2015 in which I am ranked 32nd and hold a 3.94 GPA. I have been captain of my high school varsity team since freshman year. I lead the team in goals, assists and varsity playing time. I also hold the school record for goals in a season as well as goals in a career. I have achieved academic-all star every year I have played in all three sports I participate which currently adds up to 8 in total. ESPN Night Of Champions has awarded me with Outstanding Performance three times for Soccer and one towards Track and Field in which I am two year leading scorer and two year varsity captain. Freshman year I was awarded Second Team All-Conference Forward. Sophomore and Junior year I have received First Team All-Conference Forward. I'm also captain of and play Striker and Center Midfield for my club team STN. I have been playing soccer for 14 years and have no intention to stop any time soon. I look forward to a balanced collegiate experience between academics and soccer in my future.
My college experience is extremely important to me. Finding a school that has a quality academic program and a competitive soccer team is my dream. I believe I can add to any teams arsenal because I am determined to play my best, work with the teams system and I believe my previous coaches can second the fact that I am a very coachable player. College location is not as important to me as much as what the college has to offer academically and athletically. With my size, speed, and history of diverse coaches and success I am certain my college soccer experience will be a positive endeavor.
