Ava Pool '23 Recruiting Profile

One of my goals in life is to be successful. Not only do I want to be successful, I want to be an inspiration to someone, even if it’s just my little sisters, or if it turns out to be kids around the world. My goals for college are to play soccer and go to school to start my own business, but I’m not quite sure what kind of business I would like to start yet. I think I’m a good candidate for teams because I’m a good friend and teammate. I’m always trying to help my teammates keep their heads up, stay positive, and keep smiles on their faces, but when it’s time to be serious and focused, I’m concentrated and prepared to play the game as needed. I have played soccer for a little over 5 years. I started off just playing recreational soccer during the summer, and then I joined a club called Force and played for them for 2 years. In 8th grade, I started playing for Park Center High School, and I was on the JV team. My 9th grade year, I was on JV for the first half of the season, and then I got moved to varsity. Winter of 2019 I joined Coon Rapids United soccer club, and I am continuing to play for them on the League 1 Black Team . I will be playing on the varsity team for my sophomore year of highschool. During all my soccer seasons I have managed to keep my grades up and have a gpa of 3.9 or higher. I’m not one to have a problem with keeping my grades up during the season, and I think that’s a very important skill to have.
