Daniel De Leon '19 Recruiting Profile

I have many collegiate goals and aspirations for my future, but of course, I am not going to name all of them. One of my biggest collegiate goals in sports is to play for a Division 1 school. I know that many of those schools that I have researched require a 4.0, or a higher GPA than 3.65, but here is where the difference between other student athletes and I appears. No matter how hard a game becomes, no matter how bad my team is losing, or no matter how hard it may become to earn a 4.0 GPA, I will never give up. I am more than determined to always give it my best in class and on the field with a positive attitude. As an athlete, losses occur all of the time, but I believe that I am great leader who always tries to keep his team together, mentally.  Another difference between other recruits and myself, is that I absolutely love the beautiful game of soccer, more than anybody could think. I have been training and playing soccer since I was 4 years old, and I could not imagine myself not playing soccer in the future. That is the reason why I always work incredibly hard to become an astonishing player and move onto collegiate and professional levels with soccer. At this moment, I do not know what I want to study but unlike many, I am very eager and excited to discover what I want to study and major in.
