Joey Gratalo '25 Recruiting Profile

Thank you for your interest in my profile.

I am interested in a school and soccer program that will help me prepare for my adult life, and a career. I have been playing organized soccer since I was five years old. I am proud of my knowledge of the game as well as my ability and willingness to communicate to my teammates where they need to be at all times, and my understanding of each position's role on the field. Teachers and coaches have told me that I am a natural leader.

In addition to soccer I ran cross country, play on the school lacrosse team, and played competitive golf in a junior preparation series. Last spring and summer I worked as dishwasher/food runner at a restaurant, and I am currently working a part time job in the food industry. I love spending time at the gym and working out.

My education is important to me, and I am very interested in a school with a solid academic reputation. I have challenged myself to take honors courses despite all my extracurricular activities.
