Samuel Duffy '26 Recruiting Profile

I am entering my junior year at Daniel Hand High School in Madison, CT. I am naturally competitive and work as hard in school as I do on the pitch.  I am balancing four AP courses this year with my return to the Varsity Soccer team. I am very committed to my education and want to attend a top academic school where I can also continue my soccer career. I am still growing and developing and have been working very hard over the last year to become stronger and faster and to continue developing my skills. I feel my natural position is attacking midfield, but I am able to play any midfield or defensive position on either side of the pitch. I have been told that my field vision and anticipation are my biggest strengths. I like nothing better than to push a pass through to a cutting winger that takes multiple defenders out of the play. I have been my team's Captain for as long as I remember. I am very comfortable being the "coach on the field;" I am always willing to step up and take the shot that pushes my team through to the next big game.
