Matan Abir '25 Recruiting Profile

I am always striving to improve, both as a player and as a person. After 10 years of playing club soccer, I joined the football team in Freshman year and fell in love with the game. By the middle of my Sophmore season, I became the starting kicker and punter for my team and have taken every kick and punt for my team since then. I was very honored to be recognized as MVP for Special Teams for both my Sophomore and Junior seasons. In addition to kicking and punting, I'm happy to play wherever the team needs me. Contributing everything I can to the team is important to me, so I put in the work to constantly improve my skills. I am level-headed and focused and seen as a quiet leader on every team I am a part of. In my years of soccer, I was voted captain by my teammates and coaches for 5 seasons. While I love sports, I am equally dedicated to my studies. I am a Law and Society major at Brooklyn Tech High School and hope to study Political Science and Economics in College. Outside of school, I coach soccer and love to play piano. I look forward to seeing where this journey takes me and continuing to grow as an athlete and as a person.
