Hannah Bensink '13 Recruiting Profile

I am Hannah Bensink. I love soccer and have been playing since I was six years old and will play in college! I began playing soccer in the Pittsburgh area and played for Stars United and Beadling. In 2008, my grandfather passed away and my family was forced to termporarily relocate to Western NY where I joined Blackwatch ST as their goal keeper. During my time here in Western New York, I was fortunate to have the opportunity to train with Phil Wheddon, the goal keeper coach for Hope Solo. I was also privileged to attend the Collegiate Soccer Academy in Boston, MA for the past two years and was named keeper MVP last July. My club team worked hard and we finished my final season in great standing. We even placed 1st at one of our college showcase tournaments. After many years of training and hard work, I realized that I have given it all my very best both academically and in soccer! I have made the decision to pursue an undergraduate degree in economics and business. I am also considering a law degree after completing my undergraduate degree.
