Personal Statement
I am a determined, hardworking, ball-winning midfielder with silky ball skills comfortable carrying the ball and able to make good distribution decisions that help the team. Strengths include strong drive to the ball, ability to possess and create space, win balls in the air, intelligent covering and support play for team mates, and place kicking skills.
As a defensive midfielder, my club team conceded at a rate of less than 1 goal per game while I was on the field. During the 2017-18 club season (Mar-June), I scored four goals including two from set pieces.
In 2018, I captained my high school team, and recorded 13 goals and 32 assists in an attacking midfield role. This performance earned all-Catholic League, All-District, All-Regional team selection honors as well as an All-State Team Honorable Mention (Division 4).
In addition to midfield, I have played center defense, outside back, and winger/forward depending on team needs.
Academically, I have a high school GPA of 3.44 while taking an honors course load in a challenging private school setting.
I have demonstrated high character and strong leadership qualities on-field (captain/co-captain of various teams), and off-field (ongoing volunteer activities).
