China Saxton '16 Recruiting Profile

Soccer isn't just a sport for me; it's a passion.

I love the game and I want to play it competitively for as long as I possibly can. What makes me different isn't some supernatural talent or amazing speed, but my work ethic. I don't care who I'm with or what level you're at, if you are playing against me you are going to work. I push myself and others around me, which plays into everything I do.

Academically I constantly encourage my teammates to keep their grades up, often helping some of them study for tests. I have had the blessing to be surrounded by people who have shown me how to balance what I love and the education I need. My aspirations academically are high, because my goal is to be the best in everything I do. I am focused to ensue a career in biochemistry and have gone to camps to enhance this knowledge.

Furthermore, the reason I'm different is because I'm ok with being a little quirky. I live to make people laugh and corny jokes are definitely my specialty. I promise to anyone who reads this, that if you give me a chance to follow my dream in collegiate soccer, you won't regret it. I have never been afraid to work, nor of competition. My only goal in life is to live with no regrets, make tons of memories and to always laugh with the people I love while playing the game I fell in love with.
