2021 SpotlightPersonal Statement
Throughout my life soccer has been my passion. Since I was 4 I have played recreational, competitive travel, and varsity soccer. My work ethic continues to be a priority for me in soccer and academics. I have played all positions throughout my soccer career starting out as goaltender and defender in the earlier years. As coaches noticed my speed, they felt I would benefit the team by positioning me in the midfield or as striker.
My coaches have always known that they can depend on me to play the position I am in at the time, and also know they can ask me to play any position on the field. If there is a mistake made in my zone, I am determined to get the ball back and play even harder. One of my strengths is closing speed as I many times appear quickly without anyone noticing where I came from and steal the ball. In addition, one of my coaches has noted my vision of the whole field, instantly finding the open player to make a cross or quick pass. Field presence is everything to me and for my team I attempt to win every match.
