Spencer Evans '20 Recruiting Profile

I am a goal keeper. It feels strange writing it without capitalizing the word. To me, "Goal Keeper" is part of my identity, who I am. I capitalize my name, and so I should capitalize my sport. I am good at what I do. I do this because goal keeping is not my future, but it is the key to my future. Without my success in the goal, it is unlikely I would have as expansive a choice of schools as I am blessed with now. Being a goal keeper will allow me a brighter future than I have now, and thus being a goal keeper matters as a means to an end; it is the future that truly matters as that end.

What is truly important, what really matters to me, is what I will become. College is a step on that path, and perhaps the most important of all of them. I don't know what waits for me at the end, or what I will become. I only know that it will be something better than my parents could have hoped for.

I owe it to them. More importantly, I owe it to myself.
