David White '23 Recruiting Profile

I have learned from participating in sports at my school that “Our goal is to win, but our purpose is to grow as individuals as well as a team.” I attend a small school in a rural community, and it takes everyone’s participation and commitment to have a successful season.  My earliest experience with soccer was through local youth soccer programs until eighth grade when I was recruited by some upperclassmen to play varsity soccer at GCS. This is when I fell in love with soccer. It was a great season, but most importantly it was a fantastic group of upperclassmen that simply enjoyed playing the game together. Their enthusiasm, encouragement and commitment to the team has inspired me to pursue opportunities to play soccer in college.  Like all of the high school recruits on this site, I have the athletic and academic ability to contribute to a college program. However, it is my loyalty to the team and the goal that we grow not only as individuals but also as a team that sets me apart.
