My name is Jake Silva, and I am graduating in 2021, but have decided to take a gap year and play with the professional team, Aiolikos F.C. in Greece for the 2021/2022 year. This will maintain my NCAA eligibility, and provide a great opportunity for myself. I will also be playin in a u-23 league this summer for my club, Rush New England, we will be coached by Merrimack College Assistant Coach Kevin Murphy. Our team consists of high level college players from all divisions, as well as a few of my current club teammates. We have not yet received a game schedule but I would be happy to share once it is put together.
Prior to my senior year, I had always been the youngest returning starter on my high school team. I knew leading the team would be one of the hardest challenges I had faced. I was given an extremely young team, that did not have the most skill, but possessed a great work ethic. I earned the captain position, along with becoming a 1st team all-state player. So far I have also maintained my 3.65 GPA from last year, while taking my first AP class.
I believe I have the character, leadership skills, and ability to perform at a high college level, as well as have an impact. I am always trying to work on my game both technically and tactically. Whether it is waking up early and training, or studying a game on film or TV, I am always looking to improve. An ideal program for me is one that plays to feet and finds the open man, moving the ball around the field. I know the style of play varies game to game but this coaching style would fit me well I believe.
Academically, I’m hoping to find a school that offers smaller classes because they provide more interaction and 1 on 1 support, which I have learned helps me. This way of learning has helped me understand the material better and improved my grades. I am looking to challenge myself and maintain the high GPA that I’ve earned in high school.
I am looking forward to speaking with any coaches that feel I would develop into a great player and teammate for their program.
