Personal Statement
During my last four years in high school my team has gone to four conference championship games, winning two of those, and going the farthest in school history to the sectional championship. I have loved the game of soccer since I started playing at age five. My parents have told me at my first game I was giving high-fives to all the players on the field when someone scored! I still get butterflies before my games, because I love soccer and being a student of the game. Soccer has taught me to be patient and dedicated to my craft. This translates into the classroom for me too. I am diligent in my academics as much as soccer. I am always inquisitive both on and off the soccer field. I enjoy training and appreciate the outcome when you work hard for something. From my time in high school and time in club soccer I have learned more about myself as a student, person, and player than I ever thought I could. I know I will continue to grow and learn in the classroom and on the soccer field. I want to bring my dedication to a program that will be a great fit for me academically and athletically.
