Personal Statement
My name is Aristides Eduardo Pina. I am currently a sophmore attending Hodgson Vo-Tech high school. I came to the US when I was 13 years old, and its been a lot, but at the same tine its been fun and full of learning. I think that coming to the US was one smart move because of the opportunities it will bring to my life. I have many collegiate goals and aspirations which I would love to achieve one day.
Having a good education while being an athlete has always been a part of me. Ever since I was young, I made sure maintain a great level academically meanwhile playing sports. Education always comes first. Being a sophmore in high school, I want to attend college and receive a Bachelor's degree. I hope to get the chance to fulfill my dreams and play soccer at a high level in the University As a NCSA member, I hope to be recruited from different colleges. I believe my athletic abilities will impress many coaches.
As a recruit, I feel that I have many abilities that make me a great candidate for college soccer teams. I have a very intelligent approach to the game, I think one of the main abilities I have it´s passing, and my ability to read the game and follow the play. Decision making is a huge part to the game, and I honestly feel like my decisions in the field are smart. I also have a good footwork, which helps me a lot when playing the beautiful game. Having the ability to use both feet is very important for me, as it makes me an unpredictable player.
I personally believe my video does not shows my abilities at 100%, and that I can play way better than that, but for the moment that's all the video footage I have. I will upload a better video as soon as I have the opportunity to do so.
Being a recruit also means that I have to be a great student in school. My academics have put me over many different recruits as I have a 3.5 GPA which not many students have. Off the field I am a very respectful person with a character that makes people know I´m a reliable person on and off the field. I will sure make a great student and athlete in the collegiate level.
I have many collegiate goals and aspirations which I would love to achieve one day.
