Troy Young '19 Recruiting Profile

I have been playing soccer since I was 5 years old, and I love it!  My goal has always been to play at the collegiate level while earning a great education.  I have worked hard to make it onto a very competitive club team.  I practice soccer at least 4 days a week and usually have a game or two on the weekends. You could say that soccer takes up a huge part of my life, and you would be right. But I wouldn't have it any other way! 

I am also a strong student with a 3.99 GPA.  I take all honors and AP classes.  I do this because I know that I can't play soccer forever and I have always wanted to be a doctor.  I want to play soccer in college and pursue a bachelors degree, then apply to medical school.  

I do enjoy my time off in the summer.  I am part of our neighborhood swimming and diving team.  I also work as a lifeguard and as a swim and dive coach.   From soccer to swimming and I have learned and built relationships that have prepared me to learn from my mistakes and strive for my goals.
