Cassidy Ryan '21 Recruiting Profile

I have been playing soccer since I was five years old and joined travel at the age of eight. I am a very versatile player and I’m able to adjust to play with anyone. Throughout the few clubs I’ve played in, I've moved around from center back, to center mid, and now to outside back, which I am enjoying the most. I feel that to be able to do well in not only athletics, but in the real world, you need to have skills, communication strategies, and be able to work as a team, which I feel I do. I have been balancing playing multiple sports year-round, with soccer as my first commitment, while also keeping my grades at an A average in honors classes. I am not just looking into athletics, but also getting a good education for my future. I am looking into majoring in chemical engineering while playing soccer at the collegiate level. I am also involved in my soccer club’s local Youth Leadership Program(ESCO), which is volunteering to help out kids in underprivileged families/areas. I also referee soccer in my free time.
