Joyin Ojo '20 Recruiting Profile

When I was about 3 year old, my dad took me out to a local park to play soccer for the first time. I immediately took to the sport, and became very enthusiastic to play. I would compete at various levels, beginning with recreational, then club, middle school and finally high school. I enjoyed every moment: scoring, assisting, and being on the field in general. But it wasn't until the 7th or 8th grade that I realized that I wanted to play at some of the highest levels, and one of those for me was collegiate soccer. To play in college is one of my childhood aspirations, and I hope to make this dream become reality.

On the field,I have a high level of composure, which I believe helps with my first touch and ball control under pressure. I have good sprint speed and acceleration, which helps me in getting past defenders. I am a team player. I realize that I need to serve the aims of the team first before my own. I am very tactically aware, and I am very accepting of a coach's advise and criticism.

Off the field, I am a good student. I work hard in my studies and maintain a good GPA. I strive for academic excellence.

I hope to play at the collegiate level. I want to go to a good school and achieve my goals.
