- 2022 Spotlight
Personal Statement
My name is Aris Lamanna (pronounced like Paris without the P). My passion for the net started early as I have been in the GK position since I was 6 years old. I am 5'11" and I weigh 160 lbs. I currently play for the Pittsburgh Riverhounds Development Academy in the ECNL Ohio Valley Conference.
I am a straight A student and I love science. Although at this time I am unsure of what career path lies ahead, I am leaning towards sports medicine or sports broadcasting since I love to talk. I work hard to achieve and excel in all that I do.
I have been told that I have excellent ball handling skills, I am easily coachable, open to learning, take constructive criticism well and I am a respected team player. You can find me on non training days practicing with my brother as I continually strive to improve my game. I also enjoy time with my family, a nice beach and being adventurous.
I am looking forward to continuing my soccer career and growing as a player and a student athlete in high school and beyond.
