Joey Dube '15 Recruiting Profile

I've been playing soccer since I was 3 years old and it has always been my passion.  I live to compete, most of my free time goes to studying and to playing soccer so that I have the academic ability and the skill level to play college soccer.  I believe hard work, dedication, consistency, and persistence are keys to success in everything I decide to do.  I believe God gives a person certain talents and blesses your hard work while trying to improve.  I was recently asked what do I think my life would be like if I couldn't compete on the pitch after high school.  My reply was I have to compete in college because that's all I've ever known since I was a little boy.  I can't imagine not playing for my coach, myself, my parents and my team mates.  I'm grateful for the coaches that have taught me how to play this beautiful game and extremely grateful to my parents for giving me the opportunity to play club all these years.  My desire is to play for a school and coach that I can help win and achieve the goals of the team while earning my degree.  I realize I need an education, one of my coaches broke his leg while playing college ball and he was unable to compete any more at that level.  Thank God he got his degree so he can support his family.
