Shelby Mejia '24 Recruiting Profile

My name is Shelby Mejia and I am a 2024 senior striker. I currently play for SA City Soccer Club and Tivy High School. Soccer has been a part of my life since I was four years old and I have dreamed about playing in college for many of those years. I played in the local rec league for several years before transitioning to club. This experience gave me great insight in to the power of team, as well as flexibility to play with a variety of players. I believe firmly that working together as a team is invaluable. I have played with teams that had sixteen highly skilled players who would not work together and I have played with teams that had a variety of skill level who worked together and accomplished more than the skilled team. This insight helped develop me as a player and a person. I know that I can bring not only skill as a forward, but also can contribute to team morale as a positive member of the team.  Thank you for the opportunity to show my love of the game.
