From the moment I stepped onto the field as a 4 year old, it was clear that soccer wasn't just a hobby for me - it's my calling. I have honed my skills over the years to become one of the top-scoring players in my league, earning the respect of both my teammates and my opponents.
My dedication to soccer is unparalleled. I am always striving to perfect my game and push the limits to achieve a higher level of play.
My commitment to excellence has not gone unnoticed. This season I have 15 goals and 7 assists in 19 games. I was named one of the League's Top Scorers, Player of the Day and Player of the Week by the LoHud Journal. My team, the Eastchester Eagles, are League Champions and Co-Champions of NYSHSSPA Section 1, Class AA; where I earned All Section and All League as a Junior.
I understand that becoming a top player requires more than just talent; it takes true grit, tenacity, and an unwavering commitment to the game. Playing collegiate soccer is my ultimate goal and I am ready to put in the hard work to make it happen!
I realize that playing college soccer is extremely competitive. Just as I play on the field, I will take this challenge head on. I possess a high level of tactical ball skills, Soccer IQ, and mental toughness. I am an unselfish player--knowing that possession and clean passing are what wins games. Commitment is my strength, both on and off the field. I am "all in" with my sport and always trying to improve. My coaches will attest to my dedication to my team and my teammates.
I play varsity soccer in the Fall, futsal in the Winter, and club soccer in the Spring; while working on strength and conditioning with my high school trainer year round.
Academically, I have shown progressive improvement and resiliency. I look forward to attending a college where I can continue my academic growth and pursue coursework in business and communications. I am open to all college options and want to match with a school where I can continue to learn and excel in both academics and athletics.
Commitment, dedication, hard work, mental toughness. If this is what you are looking for in a player, I am your next recruit.
