Chukwunonso Raymond-Oraegbu '22 Recruiting Profile

Soccer has always been my calling, a way I could help others, make my voice heard and get away from reality. My goal since I was in my first year of high school in Nigeria was to go pro and be the best I can be and I know going to college and being a starter. I am willing to reclassify in 2022 if spots in 2021 are full. I am a very versatile player, I know what is needed by the coach and I execute it to the best of my ability and I am a goal threat, give me space to shoot and I will use that opportunity and I never give up on a ball that was lost, I have a very strong ethic and this is what makes me different from most athletes- I am a hardworker  I know being a starter is possible because my work on the field and academically  will get me closer to this dream. I have been told by my peers in Nigeria that I am very good with words as I always back them up with action. With people looking up to me, i always urge myself to do the best on and off the pitch to encourage my teammates.  I am certain I can make an impact academically and sports-wise in any institution that will have me because I give everything all I have without giving one more attention than the other, education is also very important to me and that’s why I think I am different from most student-athletes, I will never forget I am a student and most importantly I got heart so I never stop pushing myself and getting better.
