Michael Lorenz '20 Recruiting Profile

I am 18 years of age and a Junior at El Dorado High School in Placentia, where I currently have a 3.2 GPA.  I am highly interested in playing Collegiate Men’s Soccer and pursing a degree in kinesiology.  I have been playing CLUB SOCCER since I was 11 years of age and this is my primary sport.  I have been the Team Captain for the past three years and starting DEFENSIVE MID-FIELDER for the entire time as a club soccer player.  I have also played Varsity Soccer as a high school freshman, in a very competitive soccer school and community.  I come from a disciplined and spiritual background, while being an Usher for my 200-member church for the past two years.  In addition, I am a graduate of the United States Marine Corps Leadership Program in Camp Pendleton, California, and I was selected to be an assistant the following year.  My biggest soccer highlight that has helped me to excel and develop, is that I independently train alone on a daily basis, with one rest day on Sunday.  I focus on soccer footwork, calisthenics, and long-distance running (one 17 miles run per week).
