Michael Susan '23 Recruiting Profile

I have been playing soccer since I was three years old. I have always been a hard worker since I was younger. I served my own lawn business when I was eight and grew from there, I am 17 and have 10 residential and 8  commercial lots. All that to say, I have always committed to whatever I do. Since last year I started to focus on my attention  on soccer and work on my craft in the pitch. I’m committed to the sport from waking up at 5 AM to practice or running miles after a game to cope with the loss I had. I will never give up no matter how many times I fail. Over the past years I’ve had a broken elbow, foot, torn quad and I still bounce back stronger to play the very best. When I am injured I always go to practice and learn the material we need and watch film at home to visualize the game. I know there is a difference between a good player and a great player: The good player does what is required, but the great player does 11 reps when the coach only asks for 10. I am a very fast winger score first place out of 8,500 other trace users (16.2 mph). I am a leader on my team and very vocal on the pitch to make sure everyone is giving their 110% effort. I realize that there are thousands of kids who wanna go play college and play for the big league, but I don’t play video games, and I don’t watch much TV to stay ahead of the competition. Every day I always have a ball at my feet doing 1,000-5,000 touches per day or doing ball mastery.  I am a senior in high school, but I always continue to practice and improve so by the time I get to college I will be at the next level.
