Personal Statement
Making my high school varsity team as a freshman was a huge highlight in my soccer career, but it was also the hardest. We lost most of our games which was disappointing, but taught me and the team a lot about ourselves. Because of these results I spent the off-season practicing to become a better player for my team. That year and off-season taught me how to be resilient, driven, and dedicated. The following season our team improved immensely and along with our previous season, showing how perseverance can always get you somewhere.
Being voted a captain my junior year and this coming fall has enhanced my leadership skills and continues to teach me more about myself and my team. As I continue my search for a fit athletically, I also am looking for a fit academically. I believe that my drive, commitment, and skills make me a great fit for your program.
