Personal Statement
My name is Elizabeth Butler. Everyone calls me Liz on the soccer field. I'm 5'8" and I weigh 125 lbs. In 2009 I was one of 18 players that made the South Texas ODP State team. And recently I renewed my position for the 2010 South Texas State team. I have been on my 5-A high school's varsity soccer team as a starter since my freshman year. I play for Texas Rush Soccer club. My club coach is Stuart Fitzsimons. I am a very hard worker on and off the field because I have such a passion for the game of soccer. What makes me unique as a player is that I have good strength in the air. It has always been my dream to play soccer in college, whether at a D1, D2, or D3 university. My preferences are not specific; I'm open to anything, really. I do like living in the south mainly because of the warmer weather. Lately, I have aspired to be an English teacher and/or a Special Education teacher. I also have interests in marine biology, physical therapy and literature. My goals are to, first of all, play in college. I want to play at a high level; a level that challenges me as a player. I would love to play as a freshman. I'm excited to begin the college recruiting process and I can't wait to see what my future has in store!
