Personal Statement
Hi, my name is Claudia Lebron-Hernández, and I am 16 years old, a rising senior. I was born in Madrid, Spain (US Citizen born abroad), and I moved to Massachusets when I was about 11 1/2. That's when I fell in love with soccer at about age 12, where Seacoast United Benfica quickly recruited me after playing town soccer for Beyond Soccer, the first competitive soccer club I ever played. In my first ever soccer game, I scored about four goals. I am a lefty and play left forward, although sometimes I play left outside attacking mid. Although I am only 5'1, I am a small, speedy, and very technical player, and with my speed, I can get by defenders. I currently attend Bradford Christian Academy and have won the soccer league twice and was named MVP this year with 21 goals. I am an Honor student and have an overall 3.6 GPA. I am also part of the National Honor Society. I have also played in other soccer clubs like FC Blazers, and I am now part of the Aztec soccer club, playing at the NEP/NPL level. I have also been part of the Disney Showcase and SC Del Sol tournaments. My goal is to play soccer until I can't anymore; I eat, breathe and sleep thinking about this sport, and I am willing and am doing anything to keep achieving my best and keep working hard.
