Paige Simpson '15 Recruiting Profile

I started playing soccer when I was in Pre-School at the age of 5. I played at the YMCA until fourth grade when my parents decided that I needed to play on a competitive soccer team because I scored about 4 to 5 goals every game and was becoming too aggressive. When I started playing for my Club team I Iacked a lot of technical skills and rarely played in any games for the first year. It was really hard for me not to be the best on my team and I thought about quitting but I stuck with soccer because I love the game. I worked really hard and I started improving a lot. I am a very coachable and have been coached by a lot of college coaches that coached for Kansas Wesleyan University in my home town. 

I would have to say that I am a very driven person and aspire to do the best I can at everything I do. I work really hard at school to maintain good grades. Going to a Catholic school our grading scale is Higher than the public schools so getting all A's is really hard to accomplish if you do not work for them. I believe that my education comes before anything else. I choose to get a Catholic education and unfortunately my school does not offer soccer. So I over the years I have just played for different club teams. 

As a player I am very fast and can beat other players with my speed. I am also very aggressive and I do not let anyone push me around. I love to score GOALS but I know when to be selfish and when not to. I like to win but winning is not everything I have definitley learned that as long as you do your best than it does not matter about the outcome.

I have always wanted to play at the Collegiate level and am looking for a college that can help me be the best I can be on the field and off the field. also looking for a college who has the majors that I am interested and can help me pursue a good career after my College years.
