Bauer Hanson '23 Recruiting Profile

Soccer is my passion.  I love watching my favorite teams.  I play indoor soccer and futsal in the winter with my friends.  I spend hours at the local high school in the offseason with my teammates refining and developing my skills.  I am committed to my teams and never miss a practice or game.

As a box-to-box midfielder, I never hesitate to move forward on attack, setup attacking plays and move into position to support the offense or take a shot myself.  I am the first to get back on defense to disrupt the counter-attack break-up the opponent's play .  You will find that I am continuously scanning the field to capitalize on opportunities and disrupt threats. I distribute the ball with crisp, clean passes, always looking multiple plays ahead to find an opening.  I am a leader on the field, bringing a high work ethic and a positive attitude, pushing myself and my teammates for excellence. I strive to be an asset on every team I play, building strong relationships and treating my teammates, coach, opponents, and officials with respect.

It is my greatest desire to continue my soccer career in college.  I'm looking for a competitive, positive environment where my skills and attitude will have an immediate impact on the team.  I look forward to building lifelong friendships and learning from a coach that will help me take my play to the next level.  As a student athlete, my education is of utmost importance to me.  I have a strong math background and take courses 2-3 levels above my grade-level.  I plan to continue my focus on academics and am looking for a school with a strong engineering or computer science program to pursue my studies.  In addition to my soccer and academic achievements, I was the 4th ranked player on my high school tennis team this year, and the highest ranked junior.  As a senior, I look forward to the opportunity to be team captain and lead next year's team.
