Taylor Cardwell ‘24 Recruiting Profile

Personal Statement

My dream has always been to play college soccer. In order to play soccer at the collegiate level, I intend to pursue a degree in the agricultural world. I have been a member of the FFA since 2017 and am drawn to the mechanics and science of agriculture. Both of my parents and stepdad are  retired Air Force veterans, which means that I have lived in many parts of the country. I was born in Nevada then we moved to Missouri when I was 5, where I found my love of soccer. I played recreational soccer for 4 years. After 4 years of living in Missouri, we moved to Georgia, where I continued to play recreational soccer. In the 7th grade I began my school soccer career. In 8th grade is when we moved to North Dakota. I am currently playing on high school and club soccer teams.  Throughout my life, I have learned to be resilient and flexible. As a youngster, I exceled at the forward striker position. As I have grown, I have expanded my skill set in to the attacking and defending mid-field position. I love being part of the team, coming together to over come challenges. I love the fast-paced critical thinking that is involved in making plays on the pitch.
