Benjamin Pilskalns '21 Recruiting Profile

I am deeply passionate about soccer and academics and have dedicated myself to pursuing excellence in each. My priorities are centered on learning and development, not just as an individual contributor but as a teammate, leader, student, and friend. I hope to always be surrounded by those who make me better by their presence on and off the field. I've worked tirelessly my whole life to prepare for the right opportunity and I'm excited at the prospect of continuing that hard work to make my skills and abilities available to a new team. I've learned to trust the process and put my faith in my coaches to develop and realize my talent. No matter the circumstances, I always find the time to put in extra work and do my best to lead by example. I´m a team player and have strong technical skills. I´m a talented dribbler and have a distinct skill for reading defenders. I can finish on both feet. I love soccer and I will continue to pursue opportunities to play the game with the best for as far as I can see into my future.
