James Bowen '15 Recruiting Profile

I am a 17 year old Junior from Seneca High School. I have been playing soccer ever since i can remember, and I have loved it ever since. I have played for the Seneca Soccer co-ed club in fall and spring since i was in kindergarten. When I was in 5th grade I was moved up to U-14, and when i was 14 I moved up to U-19, which I play on now. Our school doesn't have soccer, but this year we've started a co-op with Newark High school where I play varsity as the starting forward. This year I was honored to get all conference, and all area player, and ended my first season of high school soccer with 26 goals. I will continue on playing for Newark in the fall for my Senior year. My dream is to play soccer for the MLS someday, and I'm willing to give 100% to reach my goal. I'm a very good ball handler, with a lot of speed. I've done track from 6th-8th grade, and also sophomore and Junior year of high school. I also did Cross country for my freshman and Sophomore year of high school. Being the #2 cross and track distance runner at my school, I'm very quick and can use quick burst of speed when needed, such as doing 300m. hurdles. School and sports are very important to me and I'm hoping my knowledge and talent I have for being a soccer player will get me far someday by going to a great college.
