2014 HighlightsPersonal Statement
First and foremost, I am a student-athlete. I take my school work very seriously and always put it as my first priority. I love learning new things and being challenged. I think that interest makes me a better soccer player. I have always had a good ability to see the whole field and anticipate plays. I am determined to come out on top. It is important to me that I always come home from a game feeling that I have given it 110%. I am social, yet focused. I try to be a good friend to everyone. I have always thrived best in situations where the "bar" has been set high for me. I always try to prove to myself that I can get there. I have a drive within me that always wants to compete and that is shown clearly on and off field. I love all types of sports and have played them for my whole life, but soccer is my one true passion and giving up my other sports was difficult, but my love for soccer has remained constant throughout. I am very excited for college and am open to many locations and types of colleges. The most important thing to me is that I am getting a great academic experience to prepare me for life after college, and after soccer. I would like to attend a mid to large size school where I can learn, play soccer, and make memories and friends that will last forever. I want to look back at a legacy I have left with my school and team.
