Personal Statement
My goal is to find a college that will challenge me academically as well as athletically. I believe what separates me from other players is my work ethic and strong desire to win. I learned from an early age that soccer truly is a team sport and in order to be successful, an individual must be a team player. I am naturally a competitive person, but I always put my team before any personal goals. I feel I have grown a lot over the past year. I continue to try and make myself better mentally and physically. I have the ability to go out on the field and stay focused on what is needed to help my team win.
Academically, I continue to strive to be my best. Sophomore year my GPA was 95.47. I continue to make the Principal’s List, and recently received an award for continued distinguished academic excellence. I am also in the National Honors Society at Bergen Catholic High School. My current first quarter average is 95.03. I believe I have the commitment, desire and athletic ability to make a difference on any collegiate soccer team because of my drive and determination. I look forward to the challenges that lie ahead. Now I just need the opportunity.
