Gianni Maltese '20 Recruiting Profile

I would love to play at the collegiate level, if it was my choice D1 is my preference. I am willing to put in the work everyday to make me a better player and also help improve me as a person. Something that influences my life in a huge way, is how my family supports my decisions to stick with soccer.  I have loved the game since I was 4, I slept with a soccer ball eveynight and played on the hotshots team.The biggest and most important goals for me in college are continuing to maintain my A or B+ average, while always studying.  One big obstacle in my sooccer career was when I tore my MCL three years ago. Once it happend, I didn't know if I would ever be able to play the game again. That was one of the most heartbreaking memories I can remember. Thankfully, with the help of god and my family I am fully recovered.  I also always work hard to maintain good grades because school is also critical in my life. This has been the dream that I aspire to for many years. I feel like I would be a good candidate for your team because I always work hard and am always trying to see what I can improve on to help the team and myself. I care about my teammates and want them to achieve their goals as much as mine, I work very hard in school and am always making sure everybody else is also trying their hardest.
