Grace Overton '22 Recruiting Profile

For me, soccer is my absolute passion.  I've been playing since I was 4 years old, and I fell in love with the game quickly. Soccer didn't always come easily to me though, and I've faced various challenges throughout my time playing the sport. I may not have the most inherent natural talent, but my work ethic is without limit. I will always be the hardest worker on a team. My competitive spirit drives me to be the best I can be. What has inspired me to never quit was this voice in my head saying that there was always a chance to reach my goals one day. As part of this journey, it has been crucial for me to take every coach's guidance about my play and learn from what they are saying, and I have been better for it.

My will to achieve also applies to academics. Doing well in the classroom has always been extremely important to me. I understand that I have to take care of what goes on in the classroom in order to strive as an athlete. 

In short, I work hard. I am a fierce competitor. And I am always striving to improve to be the best I can be, on and off the field.
