Personal Statement
My name is Elizabeth Burfeind. I am a 2026 all Honors/AP student at Lincoln Way East High School. My GPA is 4.83 and my 8/9 PSAT score is a 1350 which is the 99 percentile. My dream is to play high level soccer at a top academic university.
I play center Midfield for Galaxy SC 2008GA, #29. We are the 2022 & 2023 USYS National Champions! Our team is from Naperville, Illinois and plays in the Girls Academy League. In addition to winning back to back National Championships, we won the U14 & U15 Illinois State Cup Championship and U15 Midwest Conference Champions. I was selected Best XI at the USYS National Championship in July 2023 and also during the National League P.R.O. event in Florida, December 2022.
In addition to my club team, I play attacking Mid for Midwest and Illinois ODP 2008 regional and state teams. I was selected by ODP coaches to represent the Midwest in 2021, 2022 & 2023 at Interregional Showcase at Championsgate. In May 2022, I was invited to the US Soccer YNT Identification Center.
I currently represent our team on the Girls Academy Advisory Board. In addition, I am an active member of the Future Business Leaders of America, Future Lawyers of American and Student Council. I enjoy volunteering for the USYS TOPSoccer Program.
