My name is Mohammed Syed. I am a 17 year old high school student, scheduled to graduate in June 2017. Soccer has been my passion for as long as I can remember. I first started playing at the age of 6 and have continued ever since. I am different from other recruits in terms of my character because of my tendency to never give up. I am a very committed individual and frequently set and achieve goals for myself. I am realistic in terms of my athletic aspirations and know that i will eventually hit my cap. I do feel however that I can compete at the collegiate level. Throughout high school, I have maintained a honor roll status while also playing competitive soccer along with holding a part time job. Playing soccer at this level is something that i desperately want and I am willing to work for it.
