Walker Slaby '24 Recruiting Profile

As a player, I want to be the person on the field that controls the game. I want to play at the college level and use my time in school to make a name for myself and my community. I want a coach and a team that's friendly but focused and driven for success. I take pride in my work ethic on and off the pitch, my positive mindset, as well as my ability to learn from myself and others. I've played soccer for a shorter time then most, but that hasn't stopped me from putting in the work to earn my spot on varsity. I am able to learn faster than others by practicing, strategizing, and watching games. I will put in the extra effort to practice the skills that I need to improve. I believe that I will be the most coachable player you have worked with, the passion I have for soccer is a reason for who I am today, and my desire to play at higher levels of soccer. I have only played 10 months of competitive play before securing my varsity position on a state-qualifying team. Although I have competed in many other sports such as; Wrestling, Baseball, Football, Indoor soccer, and an upcoming season in Track. As an athlete, I strive to be the best while staying humble, I am able to try many different things, I have trained with the cross-country team at my school to gain the stamina I need for soccer, and I play for an indoor soccer team to sharpen my dribbling skills, reflexes, game IQ, and indoor forces me to adapt to pressure, constantly find gaps, and always evaluate the field.
