Personal Statement
Soccer has helped me develop as a person on and off the field. Soccer has made me a leader and has given me confidence to voice my opinions and defend my views off the field as well as on it. My ability to maintain composure on the field helps me lead my teammates and allows me to make rational decisions even as the pressure is on or the game is becoming physically and mentally chaotic. This has earned me the respect of my teammates and coaches and helps me to guide my high school and club team in my leadership role as captain. My ability to adapt quickly will allow me to make an immediate impact no matter where I play on the field and allow me to quickly adapt to the new life that is college. I hope to make an immediate impact with the program that best fits my academic and athletic needs. As a two-sport athlete and an all-honors student, I know I have the ability to progress any program’s team closer to their desired end goals.
