Kila Kienzle '24 Recruiting Profile

I have been playing soccer since I was 3 years old and developed a love and passion for the game. My goal is to play soccer at the highest collegiate level possible. I have strong skills all around, especially when it comes to passing and defending. My best quality on the field is my vision of the field. I am a leader and captain on the team and lead by example. I try and encourage my teammates to be the best version of themselves. I work hard year round whether for club, high school, extra training opportunities, in the weight room, and more. I am very coachable and love working to improve my game at all times. I always strive to be the hardest worker on the field, which is a strong attribute of mine.

In the classroom, I participate in Honors and Advanced Placement classes and take my studies seriously. I maintain a high GPA and am very focused when it comes to learning. I am in the National Honors Society at my high school and am part of many clubs. I also started a club with one of my teammates that focuses on athlete's mental health. 

The most important thing to me is attending a college where I can push myself not only in soccer, but in my academics. I want to be part of a team and school that I really love and feels like a family. I want to put myself in a position where I can be successful and make everyone I know, and myself, proud.
