Maria Buck '20 Recruiting Profile

     School is always first and sports come after. I love sports and they are passion of mine, but I need to find a school that will not only carry out my dreams of playing soccer but also give me the best education possible. My dream is to play professional soccer, My goal is to make it as far as I possibly can in soccer, I've always promised myself that I will train has hard as I can and become the best goalie and athlete I can be. 

    In 2017 I had the chance to play soccer in Sweden. I played in the Gothia Cup and got the chance to play the most amazing teams. Getting to meet people from other countries who have the same passion and love for the game was absolutely amazing. The best part was not everyone spoke the same language but we were all still able to connect.

     I'm a strong person with just my mom by side, I play every game with the intention of winning and playing my best. Most people would describe me as a outgoing and positive person and I'd bring that attitude to every game and practice. My mom raised me on her own, it's that thought that makes me believe that I can do anything, because if she could raise a kid on her, pay bills on her own, be a single mother and still mange to raise me to be a respectful, hardworking, strong, and determined person then I need to show her that all of the blood, sweat and tears was one-thousand percent worth it. I want to make my mom proud and make myself proud by being the best student athlete I can be.
