HAYDEN MANN Defen...Personal Statement
Hello Coaches and Staff,
I am the hardest worker I know. As I found my passion for the sport, I no longer was content with playing at a low level. So in just a few years, I had to grind all the way up from recreational/flight 3 club soccer to joining and eventually starting on one of the top club teams in Southern California under one of the best coaches around, Erik Kirsch. Freshman year, I started out on Junior Varsity, but I impressed and worked hard, earning a starting spot on Varsity by the time playoffs came around. I won San Joaquin League Player of the Year during my sophomore year.
That work-rate is why I will make a full recovery and compete at a high level in college. During the semifinals of Manchester City Cup on May 30, 2022, I tore my ACL. This injury came at a terrible time, as I had become a cornerstone on my club team, as we began to win tournament after tournament (Man City Cup, Surf College Cup, US Club Soccer Southwest Regionals), and I would end up missing the most important time period for college recruiting.
I have worked my way up from the bottom to the top before, so I am fully prepared to do so again. I am working diligently in rehab in order to maximize my healing and get back onto the field as soon as possible.
Additionally, I am an incredibly diverse player. For my high school team I often play a central midfield or a winger role, while for my club team I am used as a striker and as a center back. I have a flexible build and athletic base, and that combined with my consistent experience at nearly every position on the pitch makes me a valuable asset to any team. Also, I scored a 35 on my ACT, and currently have achieved a 4.42 GPA at one of the most rigorous high schools in the country, St. Margaret's Episcopal.
I am looking for a school that can challenge me both academically and athletically, and I want to win championships and progress up the American soccer ladder.
Thank you for your time and I hope to hear from you soon.

- Evaluated at West (SoCal) Boys Academic 50 ID Camp on 07/01/2021 by Coach Peters of California State University San Bernardino: Hayden was a pleasure to work with at the camp. He played in multiple positions for the team and his versatility was very useful. His positional understanding and off the ball movement was excellent regardless of where he played which shows a high soccer IQ. I think he is exactly the type of player a college coach would want in their team.
