Nokwanda Mthembu '24 Recruiting Profile

Growing up in South Africa, soccer has always been a huge part of my life. It's not just a game to me, it's a way of life. From a young age, I knew that I wanted to pursue my dreams of becoming a professional soccer player.

But in South Africa, the opportunities for women's soccer are limited. I knew that if I wanted to reach my full potential, I needed to look elsewhere. And that's when I discovered the NCAA and the incredible opportunities it offers for student-athletes.

As soon as I learned about the possibility of combining my love for soccer with a top-quality education, I knew that I had to pursue it. The idea of studying and playing soccer at a college in America was a dream come true for me.

I am driven and determined to succeed, both on and off the field. I am a hard-working and dedicated student who is committed to excelling academically. I am also a team player and a leader, qualities that have helped me excel on the soccer field.

I am excited and grateful for the opportunity to be considered for an NCAA scholarship. It would not only allow me to achieve my dreams of becoming a professional soccer player, but it would also give me the chance to receive a world-class education.

I am confident that with hard work, dedication, and determination, I can make a positive impact on both the soccer field and in the classroom. Thank you for considering me for this amazing opportunity. I hope to make the most of it and make my dreams a reality.
