Personal Statement
I have played soccer for as long as I can remember. I love playing and watching the game. I've attended two World Cups and I watch Premier League every weekend. I watch soccer to learn and I truly enjoy it. My dad played soccer in college and has always motivated me. I used to be a goalkeeper for half of my games and challenged myself to become a better field player. I have played multiple sports in the past and I have decided to focus on soccer. Soccer has taught me about teamwork, dedication and I feel my decision making skills are well developed as a midfielder. This year my high school team made it to the semi-finals at States. My goal is to win states the next two years.
Academically I do well in school and plan to study pre-med or biology as I aspire to be an orthopedic surgeon. I am also studying to become a private pilot, which requires quick thinking and accurate planning. I seek a balance between academics and athletics in college and feel confident I will succeed in both areas.
