Elizabeth Barnes '17 Recruiting Profile

My whole life I've worked hard to get what I want. I have played club soccer an hour and a half away from where I live for five years while maintaining a 4.0 GPA through middle school and high school. On top of this I have been able to obtain many volunteer and leadership positions within my school and community. My goal is to play soccer in college because soccer has been my life for so long, I can't imagine myself not playing competitively. I love being able to be apart of a team with girls who are all playing for the love of the sport giving it one hundred percent every game and practice.

Seaside High School doesn't offer AP or IB courses, but given the opportunity I would have taken as many as possible to further my education and stand out in college applications. I'm very excited to get out of the small town of Seaside, Oregon and go to a college that can teach me about myself and the world. After college I've been thinking about becoming a lawyer, but I'm hoping to find a college that wants to help me find my future career. I would also like to pursue my education as far as to get a law degree and a doctorate. It's my dream to be able to play soccer along the way.
