Maria Jones '20 Recruiting Profile

I am a right forward for Suncoast High School and I am a Freshman in the Computer Science program. So far this year I played for the JV soccer team and guest played 3 games for the Varsity team. While playing for them I grew as a player and got better. A couple years ago I played for a state team at Okeeheelee park and then went to tryout for a travel team. When doing a physical they found i had an enlarged spleen and was told i couldn't play soccer. Two years we spent trying to find out what really caused it  and  about two years ago I had a surgery and was cleared again to play soccer. I am not as good as i used to be but i am getting back to that level and even better.  I never forgot the skills I had learned before I stopped playing.

For every team I play for in the future i will play 100% and even more and work hard to grow as a player. I am aggressive and always make good crosses and i am a fast player always trying to get first to the ball. But when I have an open shot i take it and there is no stopping me from getting goals. I am a team player and when someone else has a better shot at goal I never hesitate to pass the ball. I am now playing for Palm Beach Gardens Predators soccer team for 01 white girls and the position I am playing is striker.

At school I a hardworking student and not only in the classroom but on the field. As i stay at Suncoast i hope to take more AP classes and remain with good grades. I hope that you look at my page and choose me to play for your school and team.  Thanks!
