Kalee Opalka(LC H...Personal Statement
Everyone has a different talent or passion; my passion is soccer. I’ve played for as long as I can remember. It’s been my life and helped shape me to who I am today, through my coaches, teammates, everything. Soccer has given me a drive I may not have had otherwise; this drive also helps me through school.
One of my most important goals for college is to explore a science major that will position me well for medical school. Science is something that I’m passionate about along with soccer, the field fascinates me and I really see myself with a career in the medical field.
Every time I step on the field it is a new challenge to overcome. I am a super competitive person and I cannot stand to lose. This gives me a special mindset for the game, playing for my teammates first along with trying to accomplish my personal goals. Everything I do is for the best of the team, working my hardest for them when I step out on the pitch.
