Joana Schimmel '16 Recruiting Profile

My collegiate goal is to study the field of my choice while playing the sport I love. I am open to exploring opportunities at all divisions. Soccer has been a part of my life since I was 5 years old and I love the comradery the team atmosphere brings. I consider myself to be very competitive and am always looking to improve in areas that is needed, not only for myself, but for my team. I am mentally and physically strong on the field and am known for my exceptional speed, quickness and not being afraid of a challenge.

Staying active all year long, I participate in track and field, personal training and injury prevention. I lead by example by working hard and keeping a positive attitude.  I've started on the varsity soccer team since my freshman year and earned Tri-Valley league honorable mention my freshman year and Tri-Valley league first team my sophomore year. I was also awarded offensive MVP both years.

 I  volunteer in children's church on a rotating schedule and am very involved with other ministries when opportunities comes up. I also love to go camping with my family, spending time with friends at the beach and any outdoor activities.

If I am considered for your team, I will work hard and be committed to the team, giving 100 percent.
