Personal Statement

My name is Kara Ellis and I am from East Grand Forks, MN. I am a junior in high school (class of 2023) and I have been playing soccer for almost 12 years. I am very passionate about soccer and hope to play at the collegiate level. I am hard-working, coachable, determined, and committed to everything I do, whether that's regarding academics or athletics. I pride myself on being a leader both on and off the field and I just enjoy every moment on the field with my teammates.
