Coralie Kiessling '23 Recruiting Profile

I am the 4th of 5 children -- all soccer players. I've been playing competitive soccer since I was 5 years old, including winter indoor soccer and/or futsol. My start was in boys' leagues until just 3 years ago, and I've always played on 2 teams each club season -- my own age level and teams 2 or more years older, so I learned how to be fast, smart and tough and acquired double the game experience.  I know how to scan the field, read the play and quickly move to where I need to be.  I also have a long stride and great endurance so almost always remain on the field the entire game. My goal is to play soccer throughout college.  Besides playing soccer, I enjoy working out regularly, and I began refereeing soccer in the Spring of 2019.  I have a strong circle of quality friends and a great relationship with my parents and siblings. My preference right now is to stay in Michigan while attending college, but open to playing somewhere else that's not a long drive. My high school has been extremely strong in girls soccer, division A, and I proved my abilities when I made the Junior Varsity team my Freshman Year, but never had the opportunity to play because of Covid-19. I'm looking forward to our club season starting games this weekend -- September 19, 2020.
