Daijah Townes '19 Recruiting Profile

    I have been playing soccer since I was five years old. I played at the YMCA until I was ten years old, then I played travel soccer at Chesterfield United for two years. I went to Richmond Strikers and have been their ever since. In middle school, I started all three years and I was captain in 8th grade. My 9th grade year I made the JV team and was named captain,  and I also was a starter. For off season training, I go to a training facility to keep my skills up during off season.  I made the VA ODP district team and we train on Fridays for extra training.            

    Academics have been just as important to me my entire school career. I've maintained a 3.6 so far in high school and also adding to my core classes, I have taken two years of foreign language and working on my third year. In college, I intend to study Athletic Training and become an athletic trainer.
