My name is Elise Secrest and I am a junior at Concordia Jr./Sr. High. I have been playing soccer for 11 and a half years, and have been playing competitive club soccer since fifth grade. I play for Sporting Nebraska FC on the 2005 Premier team, and I am a captain of the Varsity team at my school. I am a determined hard worker and I never stop pushing myself, whether it’s for school or sports. I have a GPA of 3.965 and I hope to be a pediatrician someday in the future. I am incredibly passionate about my love for this sport and to play college soccer would be a dream come true. My past coaches have always told me that I lead by example with my work ethic. Coaches have noted that my player IQ is one of my strongest assets to my skill and it’s one of the many things that make me the player that I am today. My teammates have, also, said that I push myself and others to be the best they can be.
