Personal Statement
As an aspiring college athlete, I'd like to be able to participate on a team which has a coach and a strong coaching staff that can help me make personal gains and improve my level of play; as well as surrounding myself with a team that has a high level of motivation to improve themselves and those around them.
I pride myself in taking the role of starting varsity goalkeeper since my freshman year of high school, earning the spot over a 3 year second string senior and 2 junior keepers. As well as improving on the overall record of my team from freshman year forward, taking a team that barely touched .250 the first season, to a playoff run that ended in the semi-finals round my junior year. Crediting this playoff run to 2 straight season game shutouts, against an 8th seed and an 11th seed team, in order to clinch a playoff seed as the 14th seed team in our division. From there, a shutout in the first round of the playoffs against a strong 3rd seed, winning 2-0 and continuing our run in a double overtime win against the 10th seed team before losing to a solid 1st seed team.
