Jordan Mixon '21 Recruiting Profile

For as long as I can remember I have had a ball attached to me. My passion is soccer. In The future I for see myself working in athletics. I have been bouncing around The Idea of becoming a physical trainer or working in sports medicine.  Freshmen year I was captain of the the freshman team. I was asked to play with the jv and the varsity during their finals. I was excited, not only did I score, but I was on the news.

    I recently transferred to a school that can better assist with my learning disabilities. I have I struggle academically.  I have an IEP.  My grades are not always what I would like them to be, or what I wish they were; but I continue to fight the academic struggle, I never stop trying.   I understand the importance of education. I am determined not to let my struggle stop me in pursuing my dreams of playing college soccer; and maybe one day If I am fortunate enough I will play professional.

     Differences that make me a good candidate for a team is that I am persistent. For example I am a right footed player, but because I see the benefit in using both feet, I taught myself how to use my left. In my free time I practice different types of shots, I work hard on my endurance, and I am currently learning Spanish.  I have put my education before my love of the game, I transferred schools so that I can receive the education necessary for me to play college soccer. I will keep updated information on when I am playing in tournaments or club events. Thank you for taking the time to learn more about me, I look forward to the future.
