Lukas Garthwait '22 Recruiting Profile

Hello,

I started playing soccer at the age of 4 and grew to love the sport. The love of the game came from my mom. She played in high school when she was my age. My mom is my most influential and supportive person in my life. She is my rock and to watch her almost lose her life to cancer, has helped me not to take anything for granted. Throughout my years growing up, along with soccer, I have played baseball, football and basketball. Playing these sports have helped me value teamwork and dedication, it has showed me how to stay humble, have a great work ethic, and accept criticism. I am not the biggest kid, but I train and work hard, I have heart and determination and think I would be a great asset on any college team. 

My goal is to continue playing soccer at the highest level possible and graduate college. If professional soccer is not in my plan then I would like to go into physical education/kinesiology with a coaching license so that I am able to work my way up to coach a professional team or as an Athletic Trainer for a professional team.
