Angelina Calabrese '20 Recruiting Profile

My name is Angelina and I have been playing soccer since I was five years old.  I instantly knew this was my passion and I have poured my whole life/soul into perfecting my craft.  I love the adrenaline rush I get when I am in a game. I also love playing and working together as a team.  My goal has always been to play at the college level and I strongly believe my skills, work ethic , team spirit and soccer IQ will benefit and be an asset to any team.  I have strong leadership skills. I have been the captain of my club team for the past four years and was honored when I was selected as the captain for both my freshmen year and as a sophomore on the Junior Varsity team.  I work hard on my skills every chance I get. There is always a ball on my foot.  I never give up on a play and I am always the first to the ball, even when I am tired. Many people say they love my perseverance and dedication to give 150% at all times.  My future educational goals are to be an educator like my mom. She has been an elementary school teacher, intervention specialist and is now a principal.  I want to pursue this academic goal of mine because I want to make an influence on students.  I have volunteered for four years as a 'coach' for students with special needs in the Shooting Stars program in our community.  I love the feeling I get when a player makes a basket and has a good time.  I can't wait for what the future holds for me and I can't wait for the opportunity to play in college. Thank you for your consideration!
