Kaitlyn Zirrith '17 Recruiting Profile

I have played soccer my entire life and hope to continue this journey at the college level. I have been playing up for three years on the Jersey Knights Daggers team and before that I played for my town travel team for eight years as a goalkeeper, forward and midfielder.  On my high school team, I have played on the varsity level as a goalkeeper since Sophomore year, and this is the position I would love to pursue on a college team. 

What makes me standout from other recruits is my dedication, leadership experience, and my competitiveness.  When I dedicate myself to a task or a team, I make not only a physical commitment, but a mental one as well, to perform my absolute best at every aspect; both athletically and academically.  I am the President of the Fellowship of Christian Athletes Club at my high school and am also a second-year member of the National Heroes and Cool Kids program, which allows me to be a role model for sixth graders and help them with any problems they may be having in school and life.  I have always enjoyed competing against others, myself or the clock.   I believe competition brings out the best in me and enjoy competing in order to see how much I can accomplish with my team.
