Jacklyn Maisonet '19 Recruiting Profile

Hello, my name is Jacklyn Maisonet and I am a freshman at Bellmore JFK High School in Long Island, NY.  I'm proud to say that I am the starting goalie on my school's varsity team.  At the end of the fall 2015 season, prior to the playoff season, I was ranked second for saves in Nassau County.  Although challenging because I am a freshman playing against older girls, I found the experience rewarding.

I began playing goalie at the age of 8 and immediately fell in love with the position.  It was like being a coach of my team while on the field.   I felt like I was trusted as a leader.  At age 12, I was invited to participate in the New York Olympic Developmental Program(ODP), where I played for 2 seasons.  As an ODP member I was afforded the opportunity to attend summer camp at the University of Rhode Island.  This experience helped me mature both as a player and as a person.      

My education is very important to me.  Beginning in third grade I was selected to participate in the APEX Program.  This program was for elementary school students who have been identified as being intellectually gifted.  As I continued my education into middle school, I was scheduled for all honors classes.  I graduated from middle school with a GPA of 95.  Upon entering high school, I continued to enroll in all honors classes.  With hard work, strong effort, and dedication I am determined to keep a high GPA. I am seeking a college that will challenge me academically and athletically.

My life long goals consist of becoming a successful,  productive member of society while playing the game that  

I love.

Thank you for taking the time to view my profile and read my personal statement.  I look forward to future inquiries.

Much thanks,  

Jacklyn
