Xavier Gonzalez '23 Recruiting Profile

My family have influenced me who I am today, they are all hard workers and have earned what they have.   They set the example of how I want to lead my life.

My interest in soccer began when I was about 8 to 9 years old.   My parents put me in this basketball program and next to the courts were soccer fields.  It could be my turn to shoot, but I would stay looking at the kids playing soccer.  In school too, I would choose to play soccer instead of basketball or something else.  My parents later took me out of the basketball program and put me in these summer soccer camps which is where I learned the skills and tricks that are the foundation of what I do today.  When I was 10 I entered my first soccer team. 

While playing sports I have realized that I am a very competitive person.  I always want to win, which means I try very hard to win even if we are just messing around.  I am very passionate, and when I start something I like to finish it.  I also like my things organized.

Now that I started high school, I want to graduate with an excellent GPA and be in the varsity soccer team.   In college I want to do good business administration just in case my soccer career doesn’t work out I can start my own business.
