Personal Statement
I am 5’10, 170 pounds attacking midfielder, winger and forward. I am right footed, but am adept at using my left as well. Soccer is my biggest passion and motivational force. I started playing when I was five years old and I always have a ball on my foot - kicking it around wherever I go. At every level of my soccer experience I always rose to the top and wanted to take my game to the next level. I began playing recreation soccer for my town, then proceeded to move to the local travel team, then to a regional travel team and worked my way to PDA Academy. Throughout High school I have aspired to play at a top level and I believe I possess the work rate, strength, and vision to compete anywhere. I’m searching for an institution that not only is a great fit for my soccer development but also fulfills my academic goals. I enjoy working out, and attend speed, agility, and weight classes. This has helped tremendously to increase my strength and explosiveness, which are very important to my style of play. I try to balance my extremely busy soccer schedule and SAT prep classes with my schoolwork everyday. I am skillful, unpredictable and can put the ball in the back of the net. Although I want to go to a very competitive school, it is important to me that the education I am getting is setting me up to succeed in my future endeavors.
