Dejesus Herrera '16 Recruiting Profile

I am a forward on my club, varsity and elite team. I’m going into my 3rd season playing club soccer for Madison 56ers NPL U18, Varsity Starter West High and on the U16 Travel roster for the elite team Wisconsin Fire (affiliate of Chicago Fire). I have participated in some great showcases, soccer camps and competitive games with these teams. February/2015 I attended the international Mayor’s Cup in Vegas with Wisconsin Fire. My first varsity season I finished the season with 11 goals. I just finished my senior varsity season, with 18 goals and 8 assists. We finished our season as conference champions and sectional champs. I have also received all-conference for the second time, as well has made 2nd team all-state this year. As my coaches can tell you I am a very committed soccer player and work hard to improve my skills.

As a student, like with my soccer, I am committed to my academic success. I currently have a 3.2 GPA.  I am not a scholar student but, I can tell you that I work really hard and take my academics real serious. My freshman year GPA wasn’t what I hoped for but, as my transcripts can tell you I have done nothing but improve it these past 2 years. I finished my junior year with a 3.57 GPA and my goal for senior year is to get my Cumulative GPA to a 3.5 or higher. I’m a very focused and determined individual and my future is very important to me. I don’t have any set plans on what I want to major in. But I can tell you that psychology and/or criminal justice are in my thoughts.
