My name is Aileen Hernandez; I am a dedicated, determined, and strong student-athlete. I currently play center back for Rebels U17 ECRL. I'm entering my Junior year at Mater Dei High School in Chula Vista. I'm a hard-working student dedicated to the soccer player I’m becoming. I am also a two-sport athlete and play club volleyball at STORM VBC. I strive to keep going even when life knocks me down. I've been put down by many coaches in club and high school seasons. But I keep telling myself to keep pushing and that I can overcome anything if I put my mind to it. I've been playing competitive soccer since I was 8, and I have never lost the desire to play soccer. My ability to read and understand the game allows me to make quick decisions as a center-back, and I believe that my soccer IQ will help benefit any team I play for. I do a high percentage of free kicks from any angle for my team and can place the ball where I see that teammates can find a chance to score or where I see the available or open space my teammates need to be. I aim to pursue a bachelor's degree in graphic design or a related field and play in any D1 & D2 schools.
When stepping onto a soccer field, I give 110% to the game and my team, no matter what. I know there is immense value in leading through my actions, and I will fight with heart and determination until the final whistle. After the game, whether we earned a victory or a defeat, I will be proud of my team and know we can continuously improve our game. While I am proud of the person I am becoming today, I know there is always room to improve, so I constantly strive to develop my soccer abilities, academics, talents, and character.
