Personal Statement
I want to play at the highest possible level and help the team achieve their overall goal. I would work hard enough to be a valuable asset to the team while working towards my pre-law or engineering degree. What I believe makes me a good candidate for your team is that I am a win first player; I don't care who gets the "glory", I just want to go in and do my best to win the game. Athletically I see the field very well, have a good soft touch, very accurate long passes, not afraid to attack, and I am a very clinical finisher. Academically I am currently maintaining a 3.55 GPA and am ranked in the top 25% of my class. Last Fall (2014) I took the ACT for the first time and received a 25 composite score.
I just finished my last high school game of senior year (graduate 2016) at Carl Junction High School in Missouri. I have also played on the varsity soccer team my Freshman, Sophomore, and Junior years.
