Cordelia Barnet '21 Recruiting Profile

    I have been playing field hockey for 8 years.  From 5th to 8th grade, I played for Barrington Middle School.  At the end of that time, I earned the coach's award specific to field hockey and a memorial award for sportsmanship that was competitive against all student athletes at the school.  Because field hockey was not super popular at my middle school, I encouraged 5 of my friends to join the team in 8th grade so we could field a whole team.  This, along with supporting them on the field helped earn me those awards.   Currently, I play for my High School on Varsity and Seacoast United Club.   For the 2018 High School season, I was awarded the Coach's award.  At Seacoast, I have gone from always playing defense to at times playing mid-field and recently forward.   When asked what position I prefer, it is hard to respond because I enjoy and feel competent at any field position.   I work to continually improve my field hockey skills in the hope that I find a college that will equally support my academic and field hockey goals.  Because I have loved and excelled at art since age 2, I want to attend a college with a strong fine art program.  Because teaching art is also an interest, I am especially interested in schools that also offer education degrees which would likely be a minor to my art major.
