Sophia Mueller '24 Recruiting Profile

My love of soccer and fitness runs deep. I've been playing soccer since I was 5 years old and come from a family that prioritizes health, wellness, and athletics. I'm a very physical player and use my strength and speed to make a play happen. My strength and conditioning training helps me to be strong on the field. I have good soccer IQ -- I see the field well and am able to anticipate what's coming next. My ability to use my left and right feet equally is a strength. I believe in the power of teamwork and do all I can to support my teammates on and off the field. My coach likes my versatility and plays me in several positions - defensive mid, wingback and centerback. My main position is defensive mid. When I'm out on the field, I play hard and competitive. I was named to the 1st Team All Conference for the 2023 high school season. In the 2022 high school season, my teammates and coaches chose me as the Most Valuable Player of the Year award. My goal is to play college soccer, preferably D1 or D2. I hope to become a physical therapist so I can combine my love of sports, helping people, and wellness.
