Aedan McDowell '19 Recruiting Profile

    I have been playing soccer since the age of six, and have loved the sport all the while. Beginning my higher level soccer in my seventh grade year, I grew a lot, and started forming my play style. I play center back defender or anywhere the coach needs me in a given game. Though my ball handle tricks aren't extensive, I know the game, and know how people play. Once I recognize a play style I can use my speed and prediction to determine the best defense, and opportunities in which to control the ball. With good situational awareness, and effective timing, I have been a starting defender and considered an anchor for my recreational, and school teams for the past three years. Although I don't get many points on the board  due to my position, I thoroughly enjoy  being a part of a team that works well together, and plays hard. 

    Academically, I intend to attend a college offering me an opportunity to major in psychology. Once I have completed my psychology major, I intend to enroll in a Christian college in which I can master in Christian/Biblical counseling.
