2015 Highlights
Rory Buck #3 Fall...Personal Statement
Thank you for taking the time to view my profile. I attend Kent Denver, a college preparatory school where I participate in multiple activities. In addition to varsity soccer, I play varsity basketball, played lacrosse and I joined many clubs. I have also logged over 120 hours of community service, I take a difficult course load, and have still been able to perform well academically.
I have played soccer since I was three, and have loved every minute of it. From joking around in the backyard with my older brother, to celebrating my second state championship, soccer has always been a huge part of my life. I know that when I play soccer full time in college, I will fully develop my skills.
Prior to high school, I played on the top teams for both Colorado Storm and Real Colorado, won a State Cup, and was selected to the 2014 CO Olympic Development regional team. My club and high school experience has prepared me to handle soccer at the collegiate level while still succeeding in the classroom. Mainly, I am just excited about the chance to continue playing the sport I love.
