Elijah Williams '25 Recruiting Profile

I have been passionate about soccer since I was nine years old. From AYSO to MATRIX, TFA, and SURF, I have progressed from recreational soccer to competing at the ECRL club level. While I played t-ball and basketball as a kid, I quickly realized that soccer was my true passion. I take pride in my dedication to the game, always striving to improve and push myself to new levels. As a player, I am coachable, hardworking, and a great teammate who values collaboration and leadership on and off the field.

One of the biggest challenges I have overcome is balancing academics and athletics while commuting over an hour each way to school. Despite this, I have maintained a 3.25 GPA while competing in both high school and club soccer, demonstrating my strong work ethic and time management skills. I plan to study finance in college, as I enjoy math and problem-solving. As a fierce competitor, I am always striving to be the best, but I also understand the importance of teamwork and shared success. I am excited about the opportunity to contribute to a college soccer program and continue growing as both a player and a student.
