Personal Statement

Thank you for visiting my profile! I’m a center mid and am looking to position myself for the opportunity to play for a program that will give me a strong education and a very rewarding soccer experience — a team where I can make an impact and have a close bond with my teammates and coach as well as have a great time playing the sport I love. I know that finding a good fit is really important, so I want to give you an idea of the student and player I am.

As a student I:

-am disciplined and determined to do my best and learn as much as I can

-work hard to manage my time well in order to do my schoolwork efficiently and at a high level

-so far I have had all A’s and I will try my hardest to keep that up as classes get more and more difficult

-am a sophomore and I don’t know exactly what I want to study yet, but I’m looking forward to discovering my interests throughout the rest of high school

As a player I:

-enjoy stepping up to the role of playmaker

-know the importance of winning and playing balls in the air, but I really love the game when the ball stays on the ground with lots of passes and connecting with my teammates

-spend time training on my own with footwork drills, striking practice, strengthening my left foot and taking speed and strength to the next level

-in the next season, my goal is to increase the number of shots I take

I am excited to grow and develop more as a student and player and to determine which colleges are a great fit for me!

Club Information

Seasons of Club Experience:
2 seasons
2020 NC Fusion (ECNL-RL)
2019 NC Fusion (Premier - 04)
Notes: Team starter. Typically played entire game in attacking midfield and holding midfield roles. Led the team in recoveries in both the defensive and offensive halves. High pass completion rate. Scored 3 goals (include tournament winning goal) and 4 assists. As far as the team overall, 04G NC Fusion Premier won the Charlotte Invitational Tournament and finished 5th in the NCYSA State Cup, higher than any of the other Premier Division teams. In group play at the State Cup the team lost narrowly, 0-1, to the eventual champions NCFC Elite. The team had a match rained out at the Raleigh Showcase and was in position to win its group the weather meant a game was canceled. With 13 points in divisional play, my team qualified for a spot in the U17 Premier Division for the fall of 2020 season.
