Nikita Wall '14 Recruiting Profile

I was adopted from Russia at the age of five and brought to the United States.  I was born with a rare congenital defect that caused me to have no right hand and only a thumb and pinky on my left hand.  I am very determined and motivated and there is nothing I can't do.  I work hard on my soccer skills every day and can juggle the ball for over two hours without dropping it.  My high score is 10,200 juggles in a row! I have learned to overcome diversity and difficulty and I think this will be an asset in my future soccer career.  I hope to get an undergraduate degree in Sports Management and a Masters in Business Administration while playing college soccer.  My dream is to eventually play for a division 1 university, but I am willing to start wherever I can best develop my skills and play for a competitive team.
