Ari Allen '24 Recruiting Profile

Hi, 

My name is Ari, I am a goalie for the Michigan Hawks ECNL 06 team. I love soccer, I have grown up around soccer and played since I was 5 years old. I started playing for the Hawks when I was in 7th grade. My parents drive me 2 1/2 hours to get to practice and then back a few times a week. Playing for the Hawks has been a great experience and I hope to continue playing soccer a the next level.  I am a junior at Kalamazoo Christian. I am involved in the National Honor Society, as well as the Ambassadors program in my school. I am also duel enrolled at Western Michigan University as part of our Spanish Immersion program and will graduate high school with a minor in Spanish from WMU. 

I really enjoy time with my friends, snowboarding, movies, reading and traveling. My soccer team is going to Japan this year and through school I am going to Panama. I also worked two jobs this past summer to make sure I could pay for these trips. I am a hard worker, dedicated and motivated to not only play at the next level, but to be successful at it.
