- 2013 Highlights
Personal Statement
I started playing sports at the age of seven, soccer, baseball and basketball. I always seemed to grab a soccer ball more than the other two. Soccer is the sport I love and gave up the other two four years ago so I would be fully committed to soccer, even though I excelled in those as well. I am currently on a strong club team which is currently ranked #1 in NJ, #2 in Region 1 and 3rd in the country. These rankings means that I have to be at my best every game, would not accept any less. Also I am in the ODP region 1 pool and was selected to the final 18 for the second consecutive year to participate in the 2013 inter regional tournament which was held in December. I had a very successful tournament playing holding mid and as a result earned a spot on the top eleven all star team.
I have strong foot skills(ball handling) and great field vision. I use these skills to get my teammates more involved. I’m an unselfish player and do get my goals but rather give that good pass to set up a player for goal. I can use either foot which enables me to move from right to left mid at any given time
Though I’m not a captain and being a three year starter my experience allows me to direct players with confidence. I would like to attend a college that will prepare me for life outside of soccer as well as being part of a good program where my skills could be utilized and help right of way.
