Alexandra Pomeroy '19 Recruiting Profile

I took those lessons from that season into the classroom and into life. Throughout my soccer career I’ve learned so much.  I’ve learned how to perform under pressure; for example taking a game deciding PK.  Situations like having to take the direct free kick after a foul taught me how to keep a level head even in the hardest situations. I even learned how to deal with people under all circumstances as a captain that has to lead the team through some rough games. I’ve also learned patience and dedication through musical instruments; I’ve played the guitar, my main instrument, for ten year, but I also play the ukulele, piano, and mandolin. For the first four years of playing guitar I learned music theory inside and out, and as an 8 year old, it’s not a fun thing to learn. But because I was interested in the guitar, I stuck with it despite how redundant running through all the scales were. Even though I’m only 17, I feel that I’ve learned a lot in my life, but there is a whole lot more out there to learn and I want to experience new things. With my work ethic, athleticism, and leading abilities as a captain and three-sport athlete, I feel that I could make a serious impact on your team at the collegiate level. I know for a fact that I personally have what it takes to be a serious member and leader on your team.
