Personal Statement
My name is Chase Reardon.
I am a senior graduating with the class of 2022 at Hackettstown High School.
In 2021, I was awarded NJ Player of the Week (Lehigh Valley Live), NJAC 1st Team (2020)and just set the All-Time Scoring & Points record for Hackettstown High School this year. In 2020, NJ.com voted me as the Chase Reardon voted Top Boys Soccer Junior in NJ
I am a center attacking midfielder currently playing both high school and with STA 2003B U19s with (45) goals and (28) assists. I play CAM or across the front line and I can play either left, right or in the middle.
2021 HS Highlights:
I have started every match since I was a Freshman with (45+) goals and over (30+) assists over four years. Our high school team has already clinched the top spot in our conference (seeded #3 for the upcoming NJ State Sectional Tournament) currently with a 11-4-1 record.

I played in the Development Academy (DA) for Lehigh Valley United (LVU) under Head Coach Andy Adlard (U14-U18s).
Prior to LVU, I played at PDA for 5 years and just signed this past Spring (due to COVID travel rules) with STA 2003s ECNL and 2002 NL EDP (NJ STATE Champions) under DOC Shane Bullock and Matty Farrell where we participated in the National Finals (Colorado) this past June.
Prior to Academy, I was lucky enough to have been invited to join NYRB Regional Development (RDS) School for skill development and tournament play under NYRB RDS Directors/Coaches -- Ricky King and Simon Barrow.
One very important memory and highlight that I am proud of is starting as a Freshman scoring (8) goals and having (6) assists leading the team along with scoring the "game winner" in the 2018 NJ NJAC HWS Tournament for the first time in school history --
Internationally, in March 2015, I was recruited to play in the "Mundialito" tournament (aka The Little World Cup) in Algarve, Portugal representing East Coast Selects alongside teammates (Jack McGlyn, Paxton Aaronson who are both playing professional at Philadelphia Union) and managed by a US National Coach Omid Namazi. It was the most challenging and rewarding experience in my life playing center back versus Liverpool FC Academy, Boca Juniors and many other European clubs.
My main priority is to make a college squad and play at the highest level possible.
As a player I would describe myself as not only a playmaker but also a goal scorer. I believe I can make crucial impacts on games when I can play my style of play. I am a very versatile player who can play center midfield (CAM), across the frontline and on occasion I have played center back. When playing center attacking midfield (CAM), I like to spray the ball around and run at the defense with the ball. When playing as a striker I like to get involved in combination play to get myself down the wing to either cross the ball or cut in toward the goal. I like to make diagonal runs across the defense to get myself in on goal or setup goals.
I would love the opportunity to play Division I, II or III soccer at the highest level if I am given the chance.
