Tyler Bennett '20 Recruiting Profile

My name is Tyler Bennett (class of 2020), I am a senior at Clackamas High School and play club soccer for Eastside Timbers U18.

I currently play the 10 and 8 for my club and high school team and often play the 9 during ODP. I have been Team Captain of my club team for over 5 years and am also the Varsity Team Captain. I take great pride in being Team Captain and try to be the best leader on and off the field that I can daily. I am able to adapt to different formations but have grown up playing the 4-3-3 and feel extremely comfortable holding down the midfield/Striker positions while creating opportunities for goal scoring chances. I am a player that is very comfortable with the ball at his feet and always look to create opportunities for my teammates to attack while also committing to my defensive duties to regain possession. I feel like I can be a positive contributor both on and off the pitch to any soccer program if given the opportunity.

One of the main reasons for college is that I would like to earn a degree in Business/Marketing while doing so at a University that has a very good reputation for turning out quality students and does so with smaller class sizes. My goal post graduation is to become a police officer.
