Gabriella Mendolia '23 Recruiting Profile

My name is Gabriella Mendolia, I started my soccer career at the age of four playing intramurals. For the last 12 years I have played for both league and my high school soccer team.  For the past few years I have been playing Right Back but am versatile and have played Mid-Field as well.  Soccer has shaped and molded me into the person I am today.  Not only did it enhance me physically but also taught me how to build lasting relationships and work together as a team. Playing soccer has provided me with valuable skills, teaching me that hard work and focus can transform me into not only a better player but also a better student and overall better human being.  As I approach the next chapter of my life, I envision my collegiate career playing soccer and furthering my studies to become a teacher.  It is my dream to educate children and pass on my knowledge, hopefully inspiring many to go out there and work hard to reach your goals.
