Personal Statement
Hello! My name is Amanda Iverson and I will be a 2021 graduate from La Crescent High School in La Crescent, MN. I am a Forward for Southern MN Select as well as La Crescent High School. I would describe my style of play as fast, aggressive but smart. I have been on my varsity soccer team since my 7th grade season and a starter since 8th.
Last season on the MN Select team I scored 6 goals (team high) and 3 assists (tie for second) over 11 games. A highlight of my high school career was in 9th grade when I scored 21 goals and 6 assists before being honored as a 2nd team MN All-State member. In addition to scoring goals, I have great vision on the field which has led to well-balanced goals to assist statistics. Team success has always been goal #1.
In addition to soccer, I participate in track, swimming and training programs. During my 10th grade track season, I ran a personal best of 12.55 in the 100m dash and qualified for the MN State track meet on time. I also participate at my school as a junior class officer, a LINK leader as well as on the extra-curricular activities committee. During the summer I work as a life guard at our local pool.
I hope to continue my academic and athletic career after high school and I am looking forward to the adventure!
